There's not much to say that is not covered in the screencap I made from the spreadsheet below but I'll add that I do not have pin gauges to measure cylinders, and my trigger gauge is an old spring type.

PS. I should add that accuracy wise with the same hand made ammo at indoor range distance of 25 yards in my hands with my uncorrected eyes, the Freedom Arms (FA) is a bit more accurate say 1/2".
Also unless I carefully grip it the FA whacks my middle finger much like some complain the Super Blackhawk (BH).44 with the dragoon grip frame (GF) whacks them.

Also the length of the GF on the 97 is a bit shorter than the BH leaving a bit of my pinkie below the wood. I'm trying to get a thicker set of grips made for it to at least give me more purchase around it.

For long carry days the FA really makes a Perfect Packing Pistol or PPP.
