[QUOTE="Rflshootr, post: 2575232, member: 10284"] Different strokes for different folks...........my way of thinking is that when a barrel is hand lapped, the lay of the scratches from the abrasive run lengthwise with the bore to remove circumferential tool marks which is what causes copper fouling. When you break in a barrel, it is to smooth out the tool marks in the throat area from the reamer that are circumferential to the bore. Why would you want to put more scratches circumferentially and wear one side of the lands prematurely in doing so? 🙄 [/QUOTE]
