Went shooting today with my 1905 4th change .32-20. Had a great time. Wanted to compare my shooting in DA and SA and so shot two targets alternating back and forth. Noticed there wasn't much difference! Tried something new, overlaying one target on the other.

Special in 32-20 out and try to improve my shooting. It is probably my reloading technique as Black Hills 32-20 cowboy stuff shoots wonderful. My 32-20 handloads shoot crappy and spit lead at times. Old Colt locks up tight as usual as the trigger is pulled, but I dont believe the cylinder holes line up so well maybe. It is the sort of early 20th century sloppy no bluing left model. So I put her up for a while and reverted back to my Russian Nagant.
