Well I took my 360PD to the range tonight. Shot some 125gr magnums through it. Remington golden saber,speer gold dot and hornady critical defense. All 125gr bullets.
Well I get home and start to clean it and I notice what looks like the dreaded cylinder erosion. I bought the gun used but it wasn't like this before tonight,I shot maybe 50 rounds of the above mentioned ammo.
I've never cleaned the cylinder with anything abrasive and I've never shot any ammo other than 125-158gr stuff.
Does this look like cylinder erosion? Could this really have been caused by 50 rounds of ammo? If so is the gun safe to shoot? Is it like flame cutting where it only goes so far then stops? I plan on calling S&W tomorrow and seeing what their take is on this. Thanks for any help in the meantime. View attachment 233986
