Last post by Ya Big Tree - March 19, 2025, 02:51:28 PMQuote from: FriscoCounty on March 18, 2025, 02:44:14 PMIt is the cylinder that is the problem. I can't even seat the cartridge if I use .429 bullets.
I've had the Smoke Wagons since 2009. Jim Finch (Longhunter) did the tuning on them.
I have no doubt that they are made for a .427 bullet as you say, but if the bore is .429/.430 you can ream the throat on the cylinder allowing you to shoot .429 diameter. Both of my Vaqueros had .427 cylinder throats and .4295 bores.
A .4305 reamer took care of the problem. Now I run .429 diameter bullets in two rifles and three Vaqueros.
