Ok how about this? What is the smallest or some of the smaller, muzzle diameters you have seen on 9.3x62,.375H&H,.404 or .416? The L-W #5130 in .423 cal is .625 @ 26". I would consider that a small diameter muzzle. What has anyone else measured? Allen It's a Mauser thing, you wouldn't understand. | ||

My 9.3x62 has a muzzle of .589" This is a 20" barrel whole rifle is very light but shoots pretty darn accurate. My factory .375 H&H is a Win M70 Classic Stainless and measures .708" at the business end, no its not a thin lightweight but may give you a comparison. | |||

Asa rule of thumb, I normally build my guns with a minimum of .125 each side of the muzzel diameter and consider thas as safe. This of course depends on the calculated pressure on muzzel of the cartridge.-Rob Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers to do incredibly stupid things- AH (1941)- Harry Reid (aka Smeagle) 2012 Nothing Up my sleeves but never without a plan and never ever without a surprise! | |||

I have a factory 375 H&H with a 0.650 muzzle diam. Nice to carry and swings well too. | |||
