In the early 1980's I had two 5" Series '70 Colts with original barrels. My smith welded up and refit the barrels.
They shot 1" groups at 25 yards off sandbags with 200 gr. H&G 68 lead semi-wadcutters at major power factor. They remained accurate and worked very well.
Is anybody still doing this or do you always reach for a new match barrel to fit?
