    44 Super Redhawk forcing cone angle

    Hello folks,

    I rented an 11deg forcing cone cutter to cut 3 of my 44 revolvers. I cut the forcing cone of 2 44 revolvers to 11 degrees. However, when I got to my Super Redhawk, it appeard to already be at, or close to 11 degree. Does Ruger make an 11degree cut on the 44 SRH?

    After about 1985 most new Rugers were cut 11 degrees, but in .357 some were cut originally at 7-1/2 degrees and may also in other calibers if they went through Customer Service repair.
