[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 698918, member: 25383"] before I'd go nuts, I'd have the barrel recrowned by somebody that knows what they are doing. If the crown has a ding or even the last inch or so of rifeling is dinged you will push the bullets in one direction or another. I don't recommend lapping the last two to four inches of rifeling, but that's your call. Slugging the barrel might be a problem with a .338, but you might get by with a shaved .357 lead bullet. The results may scare you to death, but then you'll have a much better idea what's going on inside it. Recrowning at least gives you a good starting point. gary [/QUOTE]
