One reply on “Smith and Wesson 617 .22lr revolver”
I keep a 617 6-inch and a bag full of shells in my range box and typically shoot 30-50 rounds whenever I go to the range. It shoots everything well but the chambers do get sticky like he says. I should really clean it monthly rather than yearly but it is a 22 after all. This is no Ruger Wrangler, it’s every bit an S&W revolver worth paying $800 if that’s what they run now. It’s just as accurate as my 10/22 all the way out to 100 yards.
