I did get some dry fire practice in. I completely stripped a new to me Ruger Wrangler for cleaning. I don't have a sonic cleaner so the only way to insure it was clean required every part be removed and cleaned individually. After reassembly and function check I removed the cylinder for some dry fire practice. I removed the cylinder for the dry fire session to prevent peening the face of the cylinder by being struck with the firing pin. That can raise a burr and distort the face of the cylinder. That burr can cause an assortment of problems.
That dry fire session accomplished two things. First dry fire helps me maintain the basics of sight alignment, sight picture and trigger control. Those basic are the foundation of putting holes where you intend holes to be. Secondly dry fire helps "wear-in" the fire control components. That process makes for a crisper, smoother trigger pull.
