[QUOTE="MW204, post: 2593292, member: 118876"] It's a new barrel that is garbage, but is being replaced and is already off the action. It was a 300 WM and while breaking it in I got up to a magnum load and when I did it took me 3 days of scrubbing to get the carbon out and when I got back down to the metal I had 100's of tiny circular rings from the chamber to the muzzle. The only thing I can think of is the metal is bad and under the magnum pressure, it actually stretched the barrel causing the rings the full length of the barrel. Once I get the new barrel installed I'll have the new rings here that'll work with the heavier barrel I have and I'll give y'all a report, but from the shouldered recoil of shooting a 300 WM without a brake, I'm going to say it's going to help a lot staying on target. Zoom in on the pic to see the rings. [/QUOTE]
