Gas cutting is a self-limiting process it starts, reaches a point & then stops permanently. Like the other poster I had a DW, but in .357 S&W Magnum, & it showed gas cutting almost immediately. Once it stopped (20+ years ago) it just did absolutely nothing at all no matter how many thousand rounds I fired.

I just checked all of my 1860s. I have one that has an undetermined problem that affects the timing and has only been fired less than three cylinders full (I'm being generous here). The arbor on this gun has a bright spot where the defect appears on all of the other guns.
Yup, I still think it is gas cutting. |

See it after 60 rounds
I can just see the cut beginning at 60 rounds fired in my new Pietta 51 Navy.
