[QUOTE="Alex Wheeler, post: 1344888, member: 101859"] Actual testing done by a barrel maker in the steel used for barrels. I have yet to see anything on how cryo relieves stress and if it does, how much. I am always looking for an edge, a way to make my rifles shoot better than the next guy. I have spoke with Hobie Bond about this process. He owns/owned a cryo treatment company. He worked for Kelbly's and fully understands Benchrest accuracy. He would not make the claim to me that stress would be relieved or barrels would shoot better. He's done alot of barrels. For the cost its worth a try, but there is no substitute for proper (heat) stress relieving. Krieger still cryos their blanks before machining. I have had Kriegers with stress that wouldnt shoot, although its very very rare.
