So the UPS truck finally showed up this afternoon with my conversion cylinder from Midway. I ordered the R&D cylinder and the paper work said it was from Taylor & Co.. Functionality looks really simple so long as the cases don't get stuck in the cylinder.
Problem though, The cylinder drops in fine but seems really tight when trying to index the cylinder to the next round on about 3 chambers. It cocks a tiny bit hard on two chambers then a little harder for the next two and finally the cylinder has to be helped to cylce to the last one before the cycle begins again.
The cylinder/barrel gap looks ok, I.E. can see light thru it on all chambers, haven't tried the feeler gauges yet but not seeming to hang up there.
I've read that the cylinders have needed to be ground down a little, does any one have any pictures that could illustrate where they had to remove metal from to get a good fit?
Any help would be Great, Thanks
