Re: 651 tigger locks up at times
My wife would experience hammer lock on my 605 when she shot, but I never did. Finally, one day I got it to do it with snapcaps. The problem was short stroking the trigger and not allowing a reset. I can get it to lock up any time I want by short stroking. It's some quirk in the lockwork with these guns. If I do the same thing to my SW, it won't lockup, but it won't pick up the cylinder either.
If you're shooting magnums, maybe your hand is shifting on your grip and this may be affecting your trigger pull. Something to look at.
