Jim et al, my long wait is over and I thought I would share. In my previous post I showed what my 1997 factory barrel looked like with a borescope and what Sams Custom Gunworks has now done by relining my barrel (match grade). He has had it since February this year (very busy smith) and from all that I see including the test targets (shot from a ransom rest) it has been well worth the wait! Total cost less shipping $345.00. I will shoot it tomorrow.

Pictures including original S&W machining lol:
