Model 94, .32 special barrel wear.
« on: November 03, 2006, 03:45:53 PM »
I will soon aquire a M94 in .32 special. I have read that because of the slow twist that they don't shoot well once the barrel is somewhat worn. But how would "worn" be defined? this rifle has been used for deer hunting but the barrel appears fine.  My plane is to shoot mostly cast bullets in it. I can slug the bore and Make a sizing die exactly . 001 over size, (I have access to the necessary machine tools to do this).   I would still be using jacketed bullets to hunt with though.

So you guys that own and shoot .32's I would really appreciate your input on this.
