Randy, yes, you can do that, if the rings do not have a problem.

The best ball hone you'll find available quickly would be a 320 grit, you shouldn't need but a few passes, unless the cylinders are really screwed up. Brush Research makes the best ball hones, that's all I ever use, with their hone oil. I use a special version that is 1000 grit levigated aluminum to finish cylinders. I do have a 320 grit I use first on a "freshen up".
