.486 i have a few antique revolvers and the cylider bullet end are all within a thou or 2 of the bore diameter. also most of these have aSo...
The cylinder mouths, barrel end is .463.
What is the diameter at the hammer end of the chambers?
You may want to double check this. 476 and 455 use the same diameter bullet. 450 was negligeably smaller. Case length is what's different.I have revolver in .476 .it’s just a 450 case with a wider bullet.
They shoot 450 450 just fine
this speculation thing about variations does not apply here. this cylider forcing cone has been reamed , period. u can see some spots likeYou may want to double check this. 476 and 455 use the same diameter bullet. 450 was negligeably smaller. Case length is what's different.
So 450 will work in 455 which will work in 476 but not the other way around - won't chamber fully because 476 cartridge is longer. If the cylinder length allowed many were re-reamed.
I was responding to snurge's statement thst 476 uses a larger diameter bullet which I understand is not true.this speculation thing about variations does not apply here. this cylider forcing cone has been reamed , period. u can see some spots like
small shinydips where the reamer has not touched and a couple of chambers where the forceing cone would have started, real rough
cuting of the reamer. i have contacted CSC if they will take it back or at least exchange it. will keep u posted. thanks
It's a Webley thing - forcing cone is in the cylinder rather than the barrel. I don't know if they used a separate reamer or just a single one when reaming the cylinder chambers.I'm stumped. What is a cylinder forcing cone? Did someone run a taper reamer into the front of the chambers?
