Would there be any advantage to chamfering the cylinder?
I'm not sure how legitimate the stories are, but just wondering.
The issue was not the hot loads. It was the build up of lead and carbon from firing many lrn bullets followed by many hot jhp rounds without cleaning the gun properly of lead build up.
Talking about three distinctly different things in this thread.
Cone erosion, cone cracking, and topstrap flame cutting.
None of which would be affected by chamfering the chambers.
And chamber chamfering is done at the rear of the cylinder, beveling is done at the front.

How could the front of the cylinder be chamfered.
Chamfering the front end of a CHAMBER is something I've never heard of, and I can't imagine why you would.

12,
Bourbon today, or scotch?
Tip,
I can see a cylinder bevel.
Are you saying you chamfered the INSIDE diameters of the chamber throats?
