Is that at the end of the chambers? At the forcing cone? Just past the forcing cone?

I would be VERY reluctant to shoot a pattern welded gun that has had a bulged chamber OR a MWT of .067" at 3".

Thanks Dr. Drew for your post. It is interesting and helpful, as are all of your posts.

I notice you say you would be very hesitant to shoot a pattern welded gun with a bulged chamber. Would your reaction be any different for a fluid steel gun? Just curious and thanks
