Aaron, I don’t understand what you mean in saying “the pattern in Damascus is the result of stock removal”. Please explain. We have always understood that the pattern of any composite barrel is the result of how the iron and steel rods were stacked, super heared, twisted then hammer welded around a mandrel, filed, polished, then chemically treated to enhance the pattern.
The only Twist barrels shown are on the PH that Brian posted - is that the one you mean?
