    The Gunsite Gunsmithy does excellent revolver work as does Nelson Ford.

    Another thing to check is for yoke play. Close the cylinder and try to move the cylinder back and forth as if you were trying to open and close the cylinder. Watch the gap between the yoke and frame. If the gap changes with cylinder pressure the yoke will need adjusted.

    If lockup is good, you could get some Range Rods and make sure your chambers are properly aligned with the bore at lock up. If so, I'd say the off center primer hits are nothing to worry about
    I’ve heard of range rods. Where do you get them?

    Here’s what they said in their rely to my email:

    “The cylinder was dragging on the barrel (end shake). Removed .004 end shake." It was test fired by two gunsmiths

    They offered to send a return shipping label, however, the smith who works on revos is out with a broken arm.
