Has anyone measured? Henry tells me that is proprietary information and they will not provide. Thank you.

Clean the bore really well, then slug the bore. Bore diameters differ per firearm.

If a 41 won't stop it, I wouldn't bet my life on a 44.
I slugged mine when I first got it. Slug measured .452"
Why would Henry consider that proprietary information? That doesn’t make sense to me. But then, a lot of things don’t make sense in today’s world.

You ant to be smart enough to figure all this out by your selves ?
Bore diameter = land to land measurement.
Groove diameter = measured across the grooves, i.e measuring a slug.
Got a .22 .30 .32 .357 .38 .40 .41 .44 .45 .480 or .500 S&W cylinder that needs throats honed? 9mm, 10mm/40S&W, 45 ACP pistol barrel that won't "plunk" your handloads? 480 Ruger or 475 Linebaugh cylinder that needs the "step" reamed to 6° 30min chamfer?

Thanks for all the replies. CastingFool thanks for the measurement.
You're quite welcome! Having worked a few years as a machinist, it's difficult to drop activities you used so often that just became part of you. When I use my planer, I also mike my boards.
I never bothered to measure mine bought last September but, out of the box, it loved the same boolits as my Blackhawk which are sized to .452. it was what I hoped for.
Warning: I know Judo. If you force me to prove it I'll shoot you.
