Opening up my throats

Can anyone recommend a good smith, that could open up the throats on my 45 Colt/ACP Vaquero? This may be a stupid question, but, why would this company cut tighter throats in the cylinders than the barrel? Thanks-
 
Why ?
They weren't payin attention.

I have seen tight throats of quite a few SnWs, often not all the same in one cylinder.

Often makes for leading and horrible accuracy.

Fix as per above posts.

Why is it that whenever Sam agrees with me i feel like a proud, little kid, whose dad just told him good job.;)

Just remember if you have to send the gun back to Ruger with the open throats they will likely replace the cylinder. At least they did on mine. Another bonus for buying the reamer.
 
JjMorgan64......I hope you discussed that situation with Ruger...

That is terrible, you correct their manufacturing, assembly, inspection and quality control goof........they correct it back.

Unless the replacement cylinder was absolutly perfectly timed and all chambers were alike and correct, I would be living with them untill I got my old cylinder back.

I didn't even deal with them

I had the reamer, so i just opened up the new throats. Took less time than the phone call would have.

If my smith had done it i'd have had to call them.
