[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1885409, member: 87243"] I don't think Mr. Allen is talking about your smith (in reference to nitriding) specifically, but the barrel itself. What if 200-300 rounds down the pipe, your bore starts to get pits in it, because the metal had soft spots just under the bore that weren't apparent until you fired some rounds? If your smith will look at a defective barrel from whatever premier company, and replace it for you, that is great. But if it is a problem with the barrel itself, and your smith doesn't replace it, the barrel manufacturing company won't replace it either because it has been nitrided, then you have a barrel with pits, and it will be replaced only on your dime. If your smith will replace the barrel on your rifle because, say, Bartlien had a faulty product, that is great. But what I think Mr. Allen is saying is if your smith won't replace a faulting barrel on his own dime, then your stuck with it. He is just throwing out considerations. [/QUOTE]
