[QUOTE="Rockfish Dave, post: 1068806, member: 14257"] Thanks. I have read posts by people who have not followed what I outlined above by: Treating Button Rifled barrels Sending used barrels Not cleaning thoroughly before sending for treatment Not cleaning thoroughly after receiving back from treatment Not disassembling all parts (the processor isn't a mind reader) and the barrel and muzzle brake are treated as one part (etc). And they wonder why their once good shooting barrel now shoots horrible. It can usually be tracked back to one of the above... Nitriding is not without risk, but if one follows what I wrote everything should work out fine and they will enjoy the benefits of a nitrided barrel and/or action. BTW: the nitrided parts can still be cerecoted, duracoated or painted just like any other part. [/QUOTE]
