Wanted to see opinions on this. I bought a new S&W Governor a few weeks ago and noticed one of the lands on the rifling was pretty bad. So before I shot it I called customer service and they said they would have to look at it, and they sent me a shipping label to send it in.

Get it back today with the paperwork saying it was cleaned and forcing cone ground.

What would you do if it was yours? When I first called, the representative mentioned possibly replacing the barrel. Would this even affect the accuracy or other issues like lead buildup? I don't plan in shooting cast lead 45's but most of the .410 is lead.


Top image is before. Bottom is after. Obviously still the same.
