I recently asked Bob for specs on the 15” 357 mag barrel, here was his response:
Hey Kurt, I don’t have those specs. I'm not sure where the prints to the 15 inch are. They can use everything from a shorter barrel and adjust length to flush with the shroud when it's held on the frame. Here is what I have. Bob
Barrel thread .531-40 uns-3a
Rate of twist 1 in 18.75
Forcing cone .007 length don’t have exact angle
Crown .020 deep no specific diameter
Ive read in an older thread here on DWF the forcing cone angle is 11-degrees. Also, at some point (Norwich?) DW offered the 1:14 twist for 10”, 12” & 15” barrels to help stabilize heavy bullets used by silhouette shooters trying to knock down heavy steel targets at 200yd distances.
