[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1873711, member: 2736"] The barrel making process dictates the amount of stress relieving required. typically the cut rifled barrels are stress relieved one time from the mill. the buttoned rifled barrels must be stress relieved Twice because of the stresses added by the buttoned process. I can see the advantage of a cryo treated barrel with cut rifling because it is another form of stress relieving. As stated it is also an extra charge that doesn't add anything to the longevity of a barrel because of the temperature in normal use. some manufactures will state that it is better because of the money they make by adding extra cost items and you can bet they don't give it to you for their cost. In my opinion it is like fluting, If you want it, pay for it and be happy. 👍 J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
