one made up like yours, one a factory convertible.
I even had a cylinder made up for a SAA Colt, which was an intriguing exercise in exasperation.
Everything seems to work OK in the Rugers. Accuracy, for you, should be no worse than with the larger case, and if the cylinder mouths are not cut small, you should see very good accuracy. It's like an extremely long freebore.
But now you've piqued my interest. I've not had the chrono out for a long time and I need to see what kind of fpses I get. Closest I could compare might be with the XD tactical as it has the longest barrel.
