Mills, Don't write the barrels off if there is a slight bulged at the forcing cone. I have gun I was lucky with, which had precisely the same bulge, and I was able to 'tap it back down using a piece of think brass stock (.5" x 1") and a small ball peen hammer. I slowly worked the bulge right back to where the barrels were when they left the factory. I did make a mandrel to insert in the bore before I began.
