[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1993598, member: 69478"] Both cut and button barrels can shoot extremely well. The only real advantages to a cut barrel is cut rifling doesn’t induce stress when rifling, and with modern CNC rifling machines you can cut rifle a barrel with a twist rate to the fourth decimal place, rifle it right or left hand, add a gain twist, and control groove depth very very precisely. With button rifling you have to have a new button made for any change to the rifling geometry and dimensions. With that being said 99% of shooters couldn’t tell the difference if you gave them a rifle with a button barrel from Hart, Broughton, Benchmark, etc. and an identical rifle with a cut rifled barrel from Bartlein, Krieger, Brux, etc. Today’s barrel making technology is amazing and I wouldn’t be afraid of owning either a cut or button barrel, as long as both were manufactured correctly.
