Do the Super Redhawk .45Colt/.454 Casull revolvers suffer from the same accuracy problems that other Ruger .45 Colt revolvers suffer from. I believe this accuracy problem is reportedly due to undersized cylinder throats. I know my vaquero has tight throats as it is very difficult to push a bullet through them and my measurements (although not real confident in them) say the throats are about .448-.449. I guess the real question is do the Super Redhawks have the same tolerances as other Ruger .45 Colts.

A good gunsmith can fix that for you in about 10 minutes. Or you can get a cylinder reamer from Brownells and do it yourself. Either way it works, and works well.
