And the crown has burrs. It's a recessed flat crown. I pushed a patch through last night and there was cotton stuck to it.
Anyway, I gave him a call this morning. He said he's never deburred the crown and always does them flat. He said the first couple shots will knock the burrs off. Hmm...
When I mentioned the rough appearance of the throat and leade he didn't disagree on it being rough but said there's nothing he can do about that because it's from the reamer (which is a clymer reamer - said as though that's usual for clymers?) and it will smooth out during the break in and shouldn't pick up copper fouling. He said he forgot to give me the Accuracy Oil he uses for break-in, which is from modern Spartan systems, and it would help alot.
Mentioning the delicate nature of the bb finish, he said oh yea that will happen because it's not very durable and he can just blast it again when needed. He did say sand blast though, which is odd. I didn't know anyone used sand for bb finishes.
Anyway, he assured me it would shoot and break in just fine.
So we'll see what happens tomorrow!
