[QUOTE="SHRTSHTR, post: 1152573, member: 12514"] Shortgrass, I have two Krieger barrels on order. One is a 30" 6.5 Standard Palma and the other is 32" .338 heavy Palma. I want to Nitride both barrels after they are chambered. Everything that I have indicates that barrel needs to be shot a few times to remove burrs from the chambering operation. But as you state above, any fire cracking at all is not a good thing. Both of these barrels will be AI's. 6.5 Sherman short mag and 338 LAI. Would lapping be an option without firing rifle before Nitriding process? If I do need to fire rifles would 2-3 rounds be sufficient? The 338 concerns me the most as it is going to get the most heat. Both of these barrels are 416 R S/S Thanks, Ray [/QUOTE]
