[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 494209, member: 24624"] If the rifling stops before the end of the barrel, the bullets would be shreaded. If I'm not mistaken, this was an actual problem that Savage had with a few early model 12's that didn't get rifled properly. People had to send their rifles back to get rebarrelled. For some reason, the millitary glosses over a few details when training some of our people. I knew a Marine that thought that the M16 223 was more leathal because the bullets tumble in flight. (i.e. intentionally designed to do so) -- richard [/QUOTE]
