I had something similar on a Remington 700 and it was smooth but very cool

I like the looks of it, something different from the ordinary.
I could see owning one.

Hard Rock,
I think Jackie Schmidt is close to you. I'm sure he could do it.
And Mike Bryant is in Wheeler TX.

That sure looks like Dan's work. I have 3 of his barrels with that swizzle finish.

You are correct on Dowling doing that. I think it is a cool look. I've been trying to replicate it with 40 grit paper on an orbital sander. I'm close to getting it

My gunsmith has been doing something like that for years. A unique type of look.
This one's for sale.

The late Butch Hongisto used to do a similar finish on stainless barrels, he used Scotch Brite pads in various grades.
Heavy duty 8" industrial grinder with course WIRE WHEEL to remove rusted bluing!!! Just my guess!
Looks a lot like it was dipped in the galvanize tank.
