[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 620792, member: 12"] Both of those are button rifled and they do not take well to contouring after rifling. Button rifled barrels will change internal dimensions and not uniformly. That is why all button rifled barrels are countoured and then rifled. I had a Broughton button that had to be fluted after to make weight and Tim had to re heat treat it and we were lucky and nothing changed and it still was a shooter. On cut rifled blanks you can get away with it. [/QUOTE]
