I'm curious if anyone makes a .58 barrel in 15/16" straight. I don't see one on anyone's sites, so I imagine not - perhaps the walls would would be too thin. Ive got a .50 that has a 15/16" barrel and is 38" long. I find it more muzzle heavy than I'd like, but it's got amazing wood and sentimental value such that I don't want to maximize its feel. I hope that makes some sense.
Anyway, I was thinking a bigger bore and less weight might help that. If my math is right, a .54 would shave a 1/2 pound off the weight, but I wondered if a .58 - should such a barrel exist - be much lighter? Am I chasing something foolish?
