[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 481505, member: 25383"] what I'd love to have known is what the barrel slugged at before nitriding, verses after nitriding. Reason I ask is that I've had steels shrink as much as .0009", and others grow a similar amount! If the barrel shrinks .0005", it also means the bore opened up a similar amount. But if it grows, then the bore shrinks. But for a disclaimer, I was using gas for 29 hours to obtain a .035" case at 64RC gary [/QUOTE]
