The whole exercise for me was to show that a chrome barrel can be accurate and the statement by Redgwell was wrong and how could anyone slag a rifle they never held or shot.
The .729 group my son shot wasn't lucky, it was a accurate gun and good shooting.
It would be no different than me being a auto journalist and calling any car crappy yet never having been behind the wheel. That is the reason I did what I did.
One more thought, would 5-R rifling be better for chroming?
