[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 3069825, member: 109917"] I have had multiple AR barrels that were salt bath nitrided and even from the same manufacturer, some were slow and some were fast. I have compared them to the same manufacturer's stainless barrels and they were all within a few fps with identical loads. I know it's impossible to dimple a salt bath nitrided barrel, so I can see the rechambering issue. I just don't recall seeing it done in large volume on bolt rifles. The one occasion was the thread I mentioned about it. I am still curious about it and waiting to hear the results. [/QUOTE]
