Considering how robust the Smith and Wesson model 30 and 30-1s are... has anyone here actually done or had done one of these reamed out to accept h&r magnum ammo? How much does it take to do this?
I know it's safe. I'm wondering how much reaming is required and has anyone done it?Wouldn't take much. The gunsmith doing the job should know if it's safe or not.
Thanks for that tip. I'm considering buying a 30- 1 and just sending the cylinder out to be reamed out for the H and R magnum.A hand held reamer is all that is needed to deepen the chambers. They can be rented from a couple of places. Remember, use lots of oil and turn only in the cutting direction. Do not reverse the reamer.
Or, get in touch with Andy Horvath. He did something similar for my elder brother.

Actually, the 32 Long has a SAAMI pressure of 15kpsi.First the .32 s&w long operates at just under 20,000 psi while the.327 goes in the neighborhood of 35,000. Psi. S&w heat treats their .357 cylinders much differently than for their .38 s. Want a magnum buy one. Leave the.32 as s is and load buffalo bore .
Don't want to spend the loot on bb load some .32 ACP and have fun. The semi rims work pretty well. And yes I ve got a hand ejector

If a machine or mechanism works, it works. I'll NOT hang it on a wall and let it go disused -- I won't. I use hand-cranked drills -- why run an electric cable when I have a hand-cranked drill in my tall roll-about tool chest?! And here's a point, they were better craftsmen than I.
How does the robot know it's on the second floor?On the other hand, last week I bought a second floor sweeping robot.
Funny you should mention this -- I just had my old eggbeater drill out yesterday to bore a tiny pilot hole in my bedroom for a screw eye. Seldom the first tool I reach for, but it still works as advertised.

Walked into that one -- clarification with punctuation has been applied.How does the robot know it's on the second floor?
Boy oh boy, technology is really advancing.
