Elongated cylinders? Nope. Would you believe that SAAMI set the maximum O.A.L. for the .44 Magnum at 1.610"...exactly .005" shorter than that of the .44 Special? So conceivably some knucklehead could run a .44 Magnum reamer into a .44 Special chamber and lengthen it to accept the .44 Magnum cartridge.Huh. So there might be some Bulldogs out there that were bored for a .44 magnum, or had elongated cylinder/frames to fit the cartridge?
Interesting. I'll take your word for it my friend.
