That is the question.
So I'll be getting my new .260 back from the smith this week. It's a Surgeon 591r and rock creek barrel. I was sure I was going to melonite both the action and the barrel for all the added benefits but now I'm not so sure. I was hoping the melonite would get me more rounds out of the barrel (barrel is being finished at 22") but if I melonite it I can't cut it back when I burn the throat out. However at 22" I don't know if I'm going to cut it back anymore when I burn the throat out anyway as I don't think I'd wan't to run it much shorter then that.
I know it's been asked a million times I just can't make up my mind.....
