I had a conversation with a very well respected barrel expert. He stated pitting most of the time is not near as deep and bad as it looks.
He explained how to make a tool to feel the pitting in a barrel. Not exactly scientific but gives you a “Feel” for how bad the pit might be.
Surprising to me was many times a could run the brass tip over the pit that looked bad and could feel nothing.
