CURRENT Mod 27 357 cylinder exact length

[SmithMarine]

Can someone give me the measurement from a RECENT GUN? I know the older Model 27s had cylinders to short for reloads with some cast bullets, but are they longer now? I have 5 .357 mags but no N frame. Thanks in advance.

My 27-9 new Classic measured 1.575". SAAMI max is 1.590" for 357 Magnum.

Thank you.

Don't forget about rim thickness, since the cylinders are not recessed.
