    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    All be damned ! I’ve probably looked at 10 of my barrels when new and have never noticed that. Maybe at I glance I thought I was looking at the lands instead of them being the grooves ?!? Or maybe this is the first somewhat right camber I’ve got ! Who knows. I do appreciate you sticking with me...

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    Bear with me , I appreciate all the input but am still confused why the grooves appear cut before the lands ? I just have never noticed that with other barrels , the groove always seemless and the only apparent cut or transition is on the rifling ?

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    I’m not sure I understand. Every chamber I’ve looked at didn’t have grooves left in the freebore. If it’s a .308 groove and .3085 throat diameter why would there still be grooves left after the cut was made

    The picture is of GROOVES IN FREEBORE. People look at it like it’s a normal cut of lands , but those are grooves .... top left corner of pic shows the land .

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    What are the chances that the grooves are oversized ? Say .3085 , when the camber would be cut it would leave in some groove ? All the grooves should be high if I understand what your saying? Every groove looks similar to that picture. I have a video that would be better but can’t figure out how...

    just to verify ... the picture is of the groove not the land.

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    As the title says.... it’s fresh cut . In not asking if I should shoot it or not , I’m asking what would cause that as I have not seen it before.

    Gunsmithing Funky throat pictures on a fresh cut barrel.

    Haven’t seen the grooves not taken away before the lands. The CBTO remains the same as my last barrel but it just looks weird. Can anyone explain how this would happen ? It also looks like the lands are clean cut without any swipe or (smear) .

    Ohh my ! Area 419 AD FX120

    I finally pulled the trigger on a full setup , pretty amazing what is capable of. A couple things I wish I would have researched though. I sold my charge master and some other things to fund this setup and if I would have known you have to manually set...
