I would like to discuss the many different types of rifling and there uses. (To learn something)
Like everyone, I have my favorite rifling designs for different uses but would like to hear other members view and use preferences.
This is not about twist rates,(Another discussion) It is just about the many different kinds and there advantages and disadvantages. We currently have everything from smoothbore (No rifling) to Micro
(10 or more groves) on hunting/target rifles, so I though it would be interesting and informative.
We also have non conventional rifling like Polygonal, Gain twist and ratchet designs, so feel free to discuss any of these that you have had personal experience with (No hear say please). The grove count of your favorite rifle is also Important. (2,3,4,5,6,8 and 10) and the pros and cons of them.
PS : Please keep it civil.
Thanks
