[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1022362, member: 10755"] I agree with Mikecr. I used to chase the lands in my 1000yrd rifle barrels, but where do you stop? I took the approach of retesting after every match for velocity changes if throat wear was evident, then adjusting the charge weight to compensate for the velocity loss. It has worked for quite a few barrels now and can prolong a node even though the barrel may be on it's way out. By keeping velocity in the node dissipates the negative effects of throat lengthening, and I have never seen evidence that the haze cracking in the throat as it lengthens has a detrimental effect on accuracy, but does foul easily. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
