O.k. I think I want to fire lap this bore in my 30-30.
Its start of the barrel is dullish compared to the rest of the barrell.
There are some dings and things on the start of this as well.
Since I have been PP ing it has smoothed out the barrell quite a bit. More ore less taking a tight spot out and most of the chatter maks in the start of the rifling from when I got it.
I wanna open up the diameter a bee's dick and smooth and open the start on the barrell say about 4-6 inches from the chamber.
A tight dry patch will squeek down the bore till the last 4 inches or so to the crown and it opens up slightly there. Sort of the barrell the way you'd want it fitted back to front.
Will fire lapping cure this.....lap out the first section more than the muzzle???
If so what git sizes you recommend and loads.
Or would I be better off just enjoying it the way it is.
Or hand lapping it out???
I was getting good accuracy from factory ammo today 1 1/2 moa roughly and about 2 1/2 moa with PP. Plain cast good as I could hope for.
Its reasonable accurate and I am happy with it, but I believe it has more potential there to be made use of.
Barra.
