Chamber variance

Just got back, fired 40 cut down .357s loaded with 124g lrn w/5g unique in the MKIV, flawlwess and reasonably accurate. Got about a 10" consistent grouping at 20 yds. Checked chamber diameter (thanks Jerry) it is .388 in the Webley, .364 in the Colt 357. No split cases, probably cause the .357s are thicker at bottom and are nickel coated. Wouldn't be my first choice, second or third either, maybe, but not bad. Also fired a MKVI in .45 acp, 185g swc using 7g of Unique, very accurate, 6" groups at 20 yds. Later, thanks all.
