    Harder than you think it should be with these little guns with their free spin and no half-cock. 
    We have six in rotation at our 4H Western Heritage club. Same as grown-up CAS but all guns as staged. No drawing from the holster. 
    We load one, skip one, load four then rotate the cylinder one click forward by hand.  We found that even if you did everything right, sometimes when you cocked and decocked, it wouldn't rotate all the way and your first trigger pull would fall on the empty chamber. 

    Each of these revolvers probably has at least 2000 rounds through them with no problems.
    However, we found they do NOT like certain low velocity target ammo and will keyhole badly.  
    I sent a pair back to Ruger with test targets and detailed notes on six different kinds of ammo.  Their response was, "We fired them with CCI mini-mag and demonstrated acceptable accuracy. Use CCI mini-mag." 

    What low velocity ammo key holed? Thank you
