[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1359347, member: 2736"] I have seen this many times when re contouring barrels. What happens is the barrel maker contours the barrel and then some mullet center less buffs it to remove the machine marks and leaves the belt in one place leaving a low area. Is it bad ? I think so because it allows the barrel to move when heated up causing a shift in the POI. Barrel should be straight and true with uniform thickness the length of the barrel at any point. One of the main reason to re contour is to true up this problem if it occurs The barrel maker should make it good for you. No matter who makes the barrel, it is not what you expect in a custom barrel. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
