My barrel slugged .451 dia. while my cyl throats were really tight ranging from .447, .448, .449, and .450 measured with pin gauges. Needless to say accuracy from factory ammo as well as my handloads was lackluster. After sending my cyl to have the throats reamed to .452 my accuracy woes are gone.

I had read about that in other forums. Though some have said that post 2014 models should have a better throat. We shall see if that's true.
