This a factory forcing cone on a 45 New Vaquero. Is there any point to have it cut to 11*? Doesn’t look like 11* but it’s not just square like I’ve seen on others.

I think its a minimal issue. I would be more concerned with the chamber throats and bullet dimension.

Nor heard a person say he or she can do so. The forcing cone plays a huge part in REVOLVER ACCURACY, which includes offsets in CHAMBER-to-BORE ALIGNMENT. Although fuzzy, your photo, your forcing cone appears concentric and smooth. And desirably shallow. David Bradshaw

Agreed , the forcing cone looks pretty good . I would shoot it once you get the cylinder back and see how it does , you may be good to go .

Always shoot the gun before modifying certain parts. One of my most accurate guns is "loose" and has "bad dimensions". I'll cut up and carve all kinds of parts before firing a round. Cylinder throats, forcing cones, and crowns are best left untouched until you get baseline data. I have ruined parts by assuming they were the issue before proving it.
