[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 1810912, member: 64108"] Do both the cordless drill and the short stoking methods, if you ever sand or grind you know how changing directions speeds things up. Also don't get wrapped up in the looks of the barrel, use the scope to diagnose a problem and check your cleaning methods. Don't use the scope to find problems with your barrel that aren't problems. I have a .243WIN with ~1,700 rounds and the barrel has chunks missing like one of your pictures for the first 5 inches but it shoots so well 3 of my friends want to buy it. A while back Alex Wheeler posted a picture of a similar "fried" barrel and people ranted to get rid of it, use it as a garden stake, etc. then he said that barrel had just set a world record. So let the barrel do the talking and don't over think the looks. You have probably spent the last 10 scoping all your barrels...LOL [/QUOTE]
