Forcing Cone

On this day 2019 I decided to recut the forcing cone on my Liberty 45. Did it make a difference in the way it shot? Not that I could tell but it sure looked good.

Same here, bought the Brownells kit for my 41 Magnum Blackhawk, shot good but forcing cone was a little rough, used the kit very carefully, looked nice afterwards, did it shoot better, not that I could tell with open sights, hit what I needed to shoot, couldn't ask for more :-)

Forcing Cone

I don't recall the year, but I picked up a Taylor Throating Reamer from Bronells and brought it back down here. The PPPPPP was slightly out of time, locking up just a bit out of whack. It leaded something fierce on the left side of the forcing cone where the bullets would shave off as they left the cylinder and entered the barrel. After carefully reaming the throad/forcing cone, it not only looked good, it no longer leaded and was easier to clean. As they say, one's mileage may vary. Another factor is, doing such a job gives one a sense of satisfaction. :-)
