I bought this .44 Special Flat Top Blackhawk 10+ years ago and just never could get "in" to it. But recently I dug it back out and started working with it to the tune of cutting the forcing cone to 11° and fire-lapping the tight spot out of the barrel. A little ways into the lapping as I was checking progress I noticed the rear of the lands looked odd. A close inspection revealed that 5 of the 6 lands have bad spots on them-
As one can see, the left rear edge of the lands aren't complete.
Is this something Ruger would possibly take care of? The barrel catches lots of lead in those bad areas.
