so... I have yet to come across a builder gun ( hate to buy one new, when half the gun goes to the parts bin )
but I think I have a line on one... once we have an actual gun in our hands, we can measure what we can get by with for chambers...
thinking shortened versions of these cases...
375 Winchester
444 Marlin
460 S&W
500 S&W ( would be a 5 shot revolver, if a 50 will fit ) ( which is a whole "nuther" discussion... an actual 4 shot revolver with an empty under the hammer )
one thing I can do... albeit crudely, is look at barrel lengths... here is a quick & dirty of what I think this could look like, trimming the barrel to equal length as the block ( for summitry ) & with the loading lever removed... my builder will be adding a single action case extractor, & a loading gate, that will lokk like they came on the gun...
what do you all think about this barrel length ???
