[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1036591, member: 85987"] Cut barrels have no stress induced by rifling whereas buttoned barrels see pressure which is stress. Cryoing hammerforged and buttoned barrels has a very well documented positive effect on accuracy where as a quality cut barrel shows little improvement. I'm sure if you torqued a barrel to the action to 200#s and then cryoed a cut barrel it would shoot to the same hole cold to hot better than the non cryoed set up to the same torque. [/QUOTE]
