JMHO but wouldn't consider a "bulged" bbl good.....just sayin

Thought it may be a way to salvage original bbls. A good "double"
gunsmith should be able to determine if posdible.

Not much pressure out there at all. I would have a good
barrel guy take a look. If you are attending the
Southern sxs Jon Hosford will be there and can
take a look.
