Have you tried both fast and slow shots to see if it could be this? What about a fault with the safety, not fully coming off such that the valve is not struck adequately/reliably? Just some initial thoughts.
I've tried all sorts Aimstraight, and I can't make sense of it.

I've got it all packaged up for collection now, but I don't think it's either of your suggestions. I'll leave it for the gunsmith to sort out now, but thanks any way.

I was just asking to see if anyone had heard of this happening, or had it happen to their own Peacemaker. Sometimes these things can be a known issue, such as with the bb version of the same gun and barrel fault. which I know has been quite common in the past.
I wouldn't normally bother but to have the SAME fault twice with the same gun struck me as highly unusual.
