20 Gauge Help

Not so Mills. The stamped weight is the "pre - struck" weight - in other words, before they were finish-filed for weight and contour.

Mills I believe the stamp is the unstruck barrel weight. After striking they would undoubtly weigh less. The best indication of weather or not they have been honed is the wall thickness.

Ok. I stand corrected.

Harry I'm going to be taking a set of barrels for X-ray for another member. If you can get me your friends barrels I can take them to the same place an have an ultrasonic thickness test performed. Don't know if that's a help but the offer is out there. Another option might be to send them to Kirk merrington for a professional evaluation.
