it's a selection process ... picking out the best out of a batch by whatever means .. ie "air gauging" ...., then you are left with seconds & turds from the same lot, this is how you end up with crap barrels, when the whole batch is shyte, you end up the best turd out of the pile .... most of the air gauged barrels don't ever come close to the quality & accuracy of the better brands, cheap shyte is cheap shyte

That litterally is the same as saying measuring any thing is just a selection process.

You know jackschitt about making barrels.

There is no way to get process control of deep hole making until you can measure the hole.

It's not the end all be all but is a step in process control of making deep holes in barrels used by many in the premium barrel market.

Drill a hole 24,26,28,or 30 inches deep.
Get back to me when you can tell how straight that hole is.
Without using a air gage.

LOL.

Air gauge won't tell you schitt about straight.

It's not.

Accurizing would take a rifle an make it more accurate.

Air gauging is a way of measuring deep bores for optimising manufacturing processes.
