I understand from all y'all that all S&W bbls are non-symmetrical -- i.e. they have five lands not 6, and so there's a groove directly opposite the land. And sure enough, there is. Makes measuring rather difficult. So to find the "true" size of my bore, do I just trust that the grooves are .004 deep and do the arithmetic?
Wait. Back up. Since the whole reason to do this is to eliminate leading of the bbl, is there any good reason not to just order my moulds and sizing die in .358? Come ta think of it, this is the main question. Why not just cast .358? Any ideas?
Grateful for the advice.
