[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 674448, member: 30902"] It's not supposed to change the dimensions at all, just heat treat to relieve all remaining stresses and hardens the steel to a very high level. It also is a permanent rust/corrosion protection. I won't have the barrel pulled for it, I'll have the entire barreled reciever done together unless someone tells me a good reason not to. Just google "melonite treatment gun barrel" and/or nitride salt heat treatment. Everything I've read on it is extremely positive including greatly extended barrel life. I have yet to talk to anyone that didn't feel like it was more than worth the cost. [/QUOTE]
