I have an older S&W "Highway Patrol" Mod 28 that is in good condition. I have a problem somtimes with the revolver not wanting to rotate when cocking. I first suspected I was not getting the brass sized properly and the rim of the case was sticking out from the cylinder slightly. I am now making sure the cases are fully in the cylinder, yet occasionally still experience a hard to rotate cylinder - even with hand assistance.

I see nothing that causes the cylinder to bind, but can't see the cylinder under the hammer. Makes the gun unreliable.

I would appreciate learning what may be the problem or if other have had this experience and possible solutions. Most likely It is something I am doing as the gun will rotate fine without shells in the cylinders.
