There is no "pressure spike" caused by carbon rings. The only minor problem is extraction with the longer cases. Keep your chambers clean and it will never be a problem.
Well - after reading about that sort of thing all I can say is - your statement is at best, misleading.In manufacturing, light reflection / refraction and vision is used to detect surface imperfections so small they cannot be measured by micrometers or calipers.
The first I heard of this "pressure spike" was relating to Fredom Arms revolvers.Where did you hear of this "carbon ring pressure myth", I've been shooting over 60 years and I've never heard of it.
Shoot enough .38's in a .357 and a ring will form, period. Never heard of a pressure myth attached to that.
Is this some theory postulated by interweb "experts"?
Not gonna be an issue with a .460. Only the .45Colt in a minimum spec .454 chamber.Can't believe three pages on this. Crap builds up ahead of the case. Clean it.
I'd like someone to play with a 460. Shoot a hundred 45 Colts. Try a 454 for fit. Shoot whatever number of 454s you can stand. Try 460.
Or go easy way with a 327 Fed. 32 s&w, 32 long, 32 h&r.
Compound it with lead cast and lubed slugs.
All common wisdom which ain't too common in gubmint circles.
No offense meant.

Again, this issue has nothing to do with shooting .38's in a .357.I agree. I think the comments about probably a small percentage of law enforcement are the most interesting. I’m not a cop, and I won’t judge. But dang, can’t chamber 357?

How many rounds have you fired, what gun, caliber, such that the longer cartridge would no longer just drop in?
Have you seen fired cases that have a bottle neck shape due to the carbon ring?
So just to get this straight.
A. The carbon/lead/lube ring is a real issue. NO PRESSURE ISSUES, THAT IS A MYTH, SEE B.
B. For most anything other than the FA 454s it is generally inconsequential aside from sticky extraction. (From my experiences).
FREEDOM ARMS RECOMMENDS A SECOND CYLINDER IN 45 COLT
C. Clean your damn gun and stop worrying about it.
Does this pretty much sum it up?
Pretty much sums it up, but to add a couple details, in CAPS to your post
