[QUOTE="slikmrc, post: 3063312, member: 116436"] If your up for an experiment you could fire a 50 round pack of Tubbs lapping bullets thru the barrel. Picked up a 25-06 with a custom barrel on it. The barrel didn't look to bad, had quite a bit of boring marks but lands looked good. Barrel pressured up well below max book loads and copper was end to end in 10 shots. Fired the 50 rounds of lapping bullets, 10 each of 5 different grits. Gained around 4 thousands of throat but copper and pressure problems were gone. Accuracy was good and has gotten a little better after around 50 rounds down the barrel. This barrel was headed for garden stake bin so was a nice suprise to see it come around. [/QUOTE]
