[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 839211, member: 4191"] Interesting read Mike. Thanks for posting. I've got a new barrel in for melonite treatment now, and my future aftermarket barrels will also be melonite treated - based on what I've researched to date. Excellent corrosion resistance and increased bore life are the two selling points for me. The only drawback: no further machine work is possible since the surface is so hardened that it will dull chamber reamers and machining tools. [/QUOTE]
