My Chore Boy scouring pads arrived in the mail from WalMart dot com. (There are no stores in my town that sell the things. They have been classified as "enablers" to drug addicts.)
Since the rifling on the Model 10 looked shallow, It was suggested I get some chore boy wrapped on my bronze bore brush and attempt to remove the leading. Sort of a poor boys Lewis Lead Remover.
The copper was sharp and the fit was snug, but a good scrubbing failed to show me any little pieces of lead. The bore now looks shinier, but the rifling still looks shallow. Conclusion: bore is normal.
I also shot about 30 rounds today at the club and the pistol is super accurate. (and a lot less painful than my model 29!)
Centerfire Systems has a fine product and I am more than happy I bought one.
 
I like your wiennie dog! Love the model 10s, can't go wrong. I have the model 64 stainless and it's a peach.
 
Don't worry about it. My "pre Model 10" is over 100 years old and looks to have had tens of thousands of rounds fired through it. It is the only handgun I have ever owned where the rifling looks kind of shallow. It still shoots just fine and is as accurate as any of my newer revolvers.
