New to the forum, first post. Long time lurker though.
I do primarily work on rifles, threading, chambering, action work. I am not a professional and only do my own thing as a hobbyist. Still lots to learn.
I am starting to get more interest in revolvers. I read a lot about chamber and forcing come issues with Ruger, primarily in .45 Long Colt. So my question is this: if one has the barrel off of a Blackhawk, say to shorten it or perhaps correct cylinder gap, is there anything wrong with single point cutting the forcing cone as opposed to getting a through the barrel 11 degree reamer?
Thanks for any reply. I hope to be of positive contribution to the group here, in some small way.
