Last year I bought a NM Vaquer in in 45LC. Checking the chamber throats using Hornady 250 gr XTP's to see how easily they would go thru the cylinder it required a mallet and a dowel. Not the gentle push as described in other threads. But they did go thru. Does it sound like the cylinders need to be reamed, and if so, is that the work of any competent gunsmith? Some on the forum talk about renting a reamer and DIY job. Is it simple enough for a layman with little gunsmithing experience? Or can you recommend someone to send the cylinder to (my preference)?
Right now the gun shoots low and left 3-4 inches at about 15 yds. using 8.5 grs Unique and the XTP. Hoping I can get it to shoot straight if the cylinders are correct dimensions.
Thanks in advance
