    I thought so, but I figured I'd ask.

    If you haven't, read Wolfdog91's post "getting ready for the next project". He writes a very good overview of how he approaches a new project and what he purchases to accomplish it.

    There is no reason why your Taurus would not be accurate if the geometry is correct - that is cylinder throat size vs bore size. Slug your cylinder throats and your bore and compare the sizes. If your cylinder throats vary in size this is a problem that Dougguy specializes in fixing. If you bore is way larger that your cylinder throats that also can be fixed, same process and they will all end up exactly the same size once Dougguy is done. If your bore is significantly smaller than your throats that presents a problem.
