Why can't you "shoot the hell out of it" with the original barrels? Give us the real wall thickness in the vulnerable parts of the barrels, and we will tell you if it is reasonable.

If it were me, I'd sell the repro barrels and save myself the expense of modifying them. Then take what you saved, and what you got for the barrels, and go out and buy another gun, repro or not, and shoot it like you would have if you'd fitted them to your grandfather's gun. Life is too short to sit and wait for another job to be completed.

Nothing wrong with that as long as you have verified the .027.

The critical section is the first 12 inches beginning at the juncture of the forcing cone with the bore and forward from there. . |
That thickness at the end of the barrels is perfectly normal.

Yup, normal, and I'm sure Turnbull mentioned it because it was the thinnest section of the barrels. I would buy that gun.
|
I hope so Bill. I wondered why they didn’t give me the chamber measurements. They said will not be able to strike out remnants or bore polish due to remaining wall thickness

I wonder as well… that juncture I mentioned is the most critical measurement on a set of barrels that have been “polished” or had other work done on them. . |
