As the Title Above Say's,,,,,, Multiple Modifications since New in 2003...... Lj

Porting, new cylinder, Hogue grips, what else?

Ok,,,,,, here you go, I did all of the work myself, other than the Porting,,,,, I was asked about Cost's, so I added in a Pricing Structure, for those that would be sending the Gun out to a Gunsmith, and those Numbers are not Gospel,,,,, but gives a guy an idea of what it might Cost, anyway,,,,,, that's my Story, and I'm Sticking to it...... lj

Alaska Backpacker makes good heavy revolver loads. I've still got 8-10 of their 200 grain 357 load I got at Sportsman's in Anchorage, way too long ago.

Good work on the 329.

Hey Sarge,,,, Yea Bob loaded-up some Fine Ammo, I've got about 15-Boxes of 320gr and 12-Boxes of 300gr,,,, alas,,,, Bob has CLOSED-Up Shop, been about 2-3yrs now if I'm remembering correctly, his Health was going down hill, I think he moved back to Texas, and is living with his Daughter...... anyway, DAM fine Man, knew his "Chit" that's for sure...... Lj

Nice gun.
But the problem I had with mine was the bullets jumping the crimp and locking up cylinder rotation due to the severe recoil.
Would really suck to have that happen during a Grizz Charge.

I’ll just stick to my Glock 20 loaded with 16 rounds of Buffalo Bore 220 gr Hard Cast Outdoorsman Loads.

Ok, thanks for your reply,,,,, take a look at this New Post I just did on that "VERY" Subject...... Lj

I am sorry to hear that and wish him the best.

What a beauty!

That’s a cool build. Always did like the look of an unfluted cylinder. Those 320’s look slick too. What velocity did he advertise for those?

Ok then,,,,,, This load was, on average 19.1-19.3 Grains of H110 @ 1110-1150fps, using my Chrony-F1 and or my Oehler-M10 Chrono's,,,, and those 320's were Cast Performance Boolits.....
and his 300gr loads were the same Powder@ about 18-18.3 Grains @ about 1240-1270 fps on average, and those were Cast Performance as well.... Lj

Like the mods. What was the source for the UF SS cylinder?

Ok,,,,, here you go, Brownells, and Mid-Way had a Lower-Cost, but "No" Stock..... Lj

Does it really cost $459.00 to ream and hone new cylinder throats to .431?

Ok,,,,, Probably Not, but when you consider my Cost's for the Hone and lapping compound, and the Brownell's HandGun Kit, [see attached] I just made that Part of the Overall Potential Cost's for a Guy going forward with this type of work in mind..... nothing more. Lj
