Well you all wore me down and I called Mr. Hoyt today and bought the gun. I told him I sent an email to let him know I was going to pass and have regretted it ever since. He said about my question on the chamber length "it was a safety issue so I wasn't going to argue about it, but these barrels are stout."
Now I am in the incredibly odd situation (for me at 6'4") of having a gun too long for me. It looks like I will be able to lose the recoil pad and possibly just trim a little bit off the back and add a reproduction plate to have my length. If the wood measures right I might just checker the butt and call it a day.
Thanks for all the encouragement,
CHAZ
