SP101 Endshake

Out of curiosity, what's the barrel/cylinder gap at either extreme of end play?
I'm not a big fan of making changes to a gun without shooting it first. My .22lr SP101 has a canted barrel and every measurement is at the end of specs or slightly out of spec. That gun is an absolute tack driver and after several thousand rounds the trigger is smooth as silk.
It's pretty tight at the shortest distance—.0015" but is .007" at the widest measurement. I'm a little concerned about not having shot it first also. Just trying to avoid two trips back to factory. I had read that anything over .005 needed to be addressed.

In another forum a gunsmith (Iowegan) mentioned Rugers can go as high as 0.010" albeit gunsmiths would like it more like 0.005" you cited. The lower figures are cited for S&W as evidently Ruger does not make public the tolerance range.
