Bruce, I have seen two coils of finished steel that had literally come from the same ladle possess quite different properties after processing, most noticeably the surface. I'm not going to bet on the chemistry, I will put my money on the process in which the steel was made as being the major difference. Great idea for a thread, but I have to wonder how it would be taken if the barrels all shared a basic chemistry of mild steel ???
