Once you get the muzzle squared up, a round headed brass screw chucked up in a hand drill and some lapping compound will radius a nice crown on the barrel.

Accurizing work on my Mauser New crown Free floated forearm from full length bed job someone did way back when. It would pair shots at 100 yds if shot 10 - 15 mins apart. Had verticle string issues when barrel got hot Barrel needs to sing and vibrate on its own accord and not have heat and up pressure issues being full bedded like it was. Copper fouling revealed 2 lands had fouling equal to the muzzle Other 2 lands fouling stopped 1/4 th to 3/8ths down in the bore Worn like someone had cleaned from the muzzle Now remnants of fouling on all 4 lands end equally at muzzle 1.5 inch 3 shot 100 yd group is the goal hopefully Have original ammo and another type for wensday. Will try 2 others if results are not what I expect.

LOL. You ain't far off me some days. Took me 2.5 hours to pull a zipper and sew a new one in for wives favorite vest yesterday. New vest would have been cheaper but they don't make that one anymore and not much fits her as small as she is...
But boy can we figure out how to burn time sometimes.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

I got 300 rds of golden tiger AK ammo coming in from SGammo for start of a SHTF stash on thursday. I'm outta funds in the swiss bank account fund that the wife don't know about.....I did see that tool surfing the web. I had to buy the valve lapping compound and ceramic engine paint to get the rifle up and running and hopefully shooting way better. Everything else I had at the house.
