Any one have a problem not so much with end shake, but with excessive play in the cylinder even when it is cocked and locked..? I can cock the hammer, grasp the front of the cylinder at 3:00and 9:00 and get at least 1/16 if not more movement. Not really comfortable with this..I called D/W on Fri, sent an E-Mail and am awaiting a call I hope..any info would be great...I love shooting this 357 ..Thanks again..Chris

You're talking about rotational movement, right? My .357 does that some, too. It doesn't really behave badly when shooting, but I will probably send it away one of these days too, to have it looked at.

My 357Max is currently in for the same thing; after many years of heavy shooting.  They are replacing the hand and the star.  These parts rotate the cylinder and the hand puts pressure on the star/cylinder against the bolt that keeps the cylinder tight during firing, some play is acceptable, my Max was still shooting excellent groups, but I felt it was time as I don't know how much longer CZ will have parts and work on the revolvers.

Thanks guys, may as well send it in to CZ and have them go over it. It really shoots well but I'm also worried about holding the .006 gap. The star looks OK but the hand may be getting worn....Thanks again...Chris
