It was "Smith Day" yesterday at the range for me and a good friend.
Magnum loads were fed to the Model 27, a mixture of magnums and Specials to the 686. .38s to the rest.
I should have taken a couple of autoloaders, as cleaning nearly two-dozen chambers is not a lot of fun.

I'm confused. How would using autoloaders make cleanup easier?
Autoloaders have one chamber and the barrel is attached. For a lot of them, all you're supposed to do to field-strip them is to remove the slide and then remove the barrel. Clean the barrel, wipe off any fouling around the top of the receiver, put a drop of oil on the rails and the barrel locking surfaces and you're done.
(YMMV for a 1911).
Lots easier.
