Tom, those are awesome images showing the dimensions. Thanks for posting them.

I would check the diameter of the cylinder throats and size the bullets one or two thou over the throat diameter.
The 5" full lug N frame is the most perfectly balanced handgun ever.... and you've got a nice one. You can tell the dash number by looking at the area under the crane when the cylinder is open, you...

What type of rifling does the CBSL have? I've looked all over Marlin's site and can't find any info.

Thanks, John
The K frame 357's are wonderful handguns. Find a good midrange load for it, get some grips that work for your hands, and you'll love it. Hogues are my favorite, they fit my paws well.
I think...
A fellow on the S&W forum sells them.

I've got a 97 in 45 Colt. It's a beautiful gun and very well made. Accuracy is spectacular.
Unfortunately, the grip just doesn't match up to my paw, it pounds my middle finger unmercifully. If...
I use a profile crimp die for my 44 mag loads, and have pulled several ACWW boolits and measured them after crimping, and there was no sizing by the crimp die.
However, brass thickness obviously...

Received and paid.
Thanks Brain and Miha!!!

It's definitely chambered long if it takes a loaded 44mag round. You could try calling back to S&W and trying somebody else, you might get a different answer. If not, try it with 44 spl's and see...
Whopist, will your gun chamber a loaded 44mag round or just a piece of empty brass? Has the 44 mag brass been resized ? Have you checked the length of the 44 mag brass?

A high grip on the revolver, a smooth steady pull all the way thru. Work on developing a rhythm for the first five shots, if you have to clean up a mess do it last. While the gun is coming down out...

You might try a different brand of brass. I have experienced that bulge with some brands but not others. +P brass is particularly bad in my experience.
You might also check the length of the...

Got my request and sent payment this morning.
Thanks, I'm looking forward to it.

It sounds like a reasonable price if it's in decent shape. Two places to look are the underside of the topstrap next to the forcing cone to see if there is excessive flame cutting, and note if the...

Larry, thanks for a well planned, well performed, and well documented test.
Very nicely done.
