[QUOTE="TwoMore, post: 1344046, member: 95166"] I am no metallurgist by any means, that being said, I machine many types of steel and the pre-hard, stress relieved steels hold tolerance when removing material. when I build fixtures, that's the materials I usually want because it will be in the same shape as pre cut after I take it to size, but swaging steel will itself lend to a nice hard "compact" surface. why would this not be good for a land and groove. they should be denser. and then a good stress relieving process should relax the barrel.. is there any data out there that would say that? We use a lot of double forged rods in my work just for this reason. very High HP Pro dirt drag ATVs, the rod ends are needle bearing surfaces also . I know there is a difference between a 41 series steel I would use in a fixture and 400 series stainless, but the techniques are comparable to a point. Its my understanding that cut barrels are stress relieved before cutting and that very small pressures are used while cutting so stress is a very minimal factor and button pulling or pushing are stress relieved after , I guess it boils down to the quality of stress relieving.
