I slugged my friends 40 today and we found that the grooves measure at .391.


This explains the leading we get when using cast.

I am having him call the gun manufacture as that's a bit nuts.

I was about to comment that .391" ID is a might small for a 40mm... :groner:

Yep, that would be a pretty extreme bottleneck case. :)

We need to set up a category for Oerlikon and Bofors!
