Sometimes .425" and smaller. This combined with .430" barrels truly sucks.
Can't say that they were all that way because I haven't seen them all.
I wanted one and checked out a few. One actually had throats .423", which would be a train wreck without some serious work.
Decided on a Uberti Flattop Target 44-40. Has .4305" throats and .4295" barrel. Ties for the most accurate revolver I own.
Make your own call, that's just my two cents worth of opinion.

Not for me it isnt. They had notoriously undersized throats.
