Home Forums Reloading Bullet Casting “How to”: make a “pound cast” of your chamber throat for proper cast bullet diameter .

Done and done. I am impressed that my new Marlin 1895 CBA has the same barrel dimension (.458) of my stolen Marlin 1895 Classic. That makes me feel better about the quality control of Marlin, which took a hit a few years ago. I am also relieved that my supply of .459 bullets on hand will not go to waste.

Again, thanks to all for the great advice.
