[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1924287, member: 94491"] That's what I thought too on the wear but there is no pitting I know they had lots of different kinds of ammo including ap, tracer, bimetal etc...could the different kinds of ammo (like tracer) ammo speeding up as it traveled down the barrel increase wear near the muzzle rather than the hot gas/throat burn out that we normally see? I wouldn't be surprised if it was cleaned from muzzle rather than breach either. I have a 2nd one from same source but its horribly rusted- so bad that you have to kick the bolt handle with your boot to get it open--- when I get a chance I'll scope that bore to see if the wear is similar [/QUOTE]
