Lefty SRH
Blackhawk
I recently had another chance to pick up a NIB Ruger .480 9 1/2" SRH stainless, not Target Grey finish.
I slugged the barrel last night and it came out .475". The first inch or 2 at the muzzle were tight and then the slug dropped free all the way to the frame and then got snug again in the frame til it came out of the forcing cone. The cylinder thoats measure .475"-.4755" with guage pins, a .476" WILL NOT GO. How do these specs sound to you?
I've heard that a slightly tighter/smaller muzzle is good thing. I can't wait to shoot this monster with MY cast boolit. The mold should be here soon.
