Slugging A Barrel For Accuracy


Doble Troble

Recommended Posts

I was reading an article in the last issue of Precision Shooting magazine written by a gunsmith with a reputation for rebarreling accurate 22 LR target rifles.

 

One of his secrets is in slugging barrels to determine where/if there's a constriction toward the muzzle. If there is a constriction, he cuts the crown there. If the muzzle is a bigger diameter than toward the breech, he says the barrel isn't likely to shoot.

 

It sounds reasonable and has me thinking.
