I loosened it up a bit.  I got 7/8 American Eagles to shoot DA, but the Winchesters (cheap ones)  wouldn't shoot.  Do others have problems with brass primers?

Thanks

 

Probably needs a new return spring.  I have one of the Li'l Dan revolvers that will only fire Federal primers reliably in DA mode.

 

Winchester are one of the harder primers.

I managed to find a replacement main spring.  Everything is good now.  Original spring was 1/8" or 1/16" shorter than replacement.  

 

Thanks to all for advice.
