[QUOTE="tobnpr, post: 2971690, member: 68758"] I don't see it as being viable, economically and otherwise... At 500 rounds, the tube is somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 done, depending on how and what you shoot... You're not going to save $$ with the smith over chambering a new barrel (I'd charge more), and you'd need to buy the reamer as cutting a fire-cracked throat is rough on reamers... Sendero contour would be iffy for me. That'll put part of the chamber beyond the cylinder (which is only 2" on that contour) into the tapered section of the barrel. JMO [/QUOTE]
