One of my twist barreled guns had a minor bulge at the forcing cone, and while it was easily repaired, I can only assume it was the result of using a longer-than-intended shell, and probably paper.

I have a nice little PH 12 twist (1 frame) that has the very same problem- a slight bulge at the forcing cone of the left barrel. You indicated you had it "easily" repaired. Who did the work? I have chosen to ignore mine; shoot it with light loads; and not worry about it. I would appreciate the benefit of your thoughts
