Is it possible to damage or affect the accuracy of a barrel by black nitriding it?

[QUOTE="Brett Bracken, post: 1793272, member: 106232"] I am in the process of planning a new rifle build and would like to end up with something other than a shiny SS finish. I don't care for the Ceracoat....just want to end up with a nice black matte/satin finish if possible and the Black Nitriding process appears to be that for which I am looking. However, from what I understand about the process there is very high heat involved. Is there a possibility that my new barrel could be damaged or affected by the heating process? Also....can the barrel and action be nitrided as one unit or do they need to be taken apart? Thanks for anyone's input....Brett [/QUOTE]
