[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 1504500, member: 27307"] Good Morning from over here... Usually when we run into a situation such as you are describing, we 'cast' the chamber. Using CerroSafe (a product from Brownells), we heat it and then pour it carefully into the chamber. It cools quickly, then tap it out. This cast allows us to measure the size of the chamber. Then measure the brass to find the discrepancy. [URL]https://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/barrel-tools/barrel-chamfering-accessories/cerrosafe-chamber-casting-alloy-prod384.aspx[/URL] If this is more than what you are comfortable doing, find another shooter or gunsmith with the experience to handle it with you or for you. Let us know how this goes, please. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
