Round Barrel Dims.

Post by bucksnort »

Somewhere, on one of these websites, I read that the barrel dimesons of a Shiloh round barrel is the distance across the POINTS of an octagonal barrel, not the flats? I have two LREs, both in .45-70 (both have 32-inch HVY barrels). I'm thinking about having one rebareled with a round barrel. Is my thinking correct? Thanks.

I have two round barrels. The standard round is .806 in. and the half round is .874 in., if that helps.
