non benchrest....
i have a 5 shot 38 special that has rough chambers. throats and bbl seem fine but cases stick/resist extraction.
i would like to polish the chambers WITHOUT touching the throats.
i do not have a mill, only a lathe and drill press.
i was thinking a rotary lap with a shoulder to stop it from getting to the throats.
lapping compound or undersize and wrap with abrasive paper
lap in the lathe and hand holding the cylinder.
any other ideas ??
not sure i'm good enough to mount the cylinder and try reboring the chambers single point.
thanks
