I have gotten rid of THREE Pietta stainless '58s (in a row) because the chamber to barrel alignment was so bad that when fired, the ball would wrench the chamber over to where the cylinder would jump out of the bolt stop notch and freeze up the gun. Once I got a couple of Uberti Milenniums my problems were solved. I've only had the alignment problem on one of my 7 Euroarms Remingtons but a Uberti cylinder dropped right in and that problem was solved.
