10/22 Take Down barrel problem

[JeffsSig]

Check out this Take Down barrel

This was reported on another Forum. Ruger did replace it Good for them.

I guess I need to look at mine and make sure.

Yep. Like the chamber in my LCP. That's their new bullet polishing feature :-)

Jeez. Ruger is so far behind, they are trying to crank them out too fast and this is what happens.

SLOW DOWN AND DO IT RIGHT RUGER! Long wait times are always preferable to multiple returns or [gasp] recalls.

AND, someone in QC should be fired for letting that leave the shop.

Are those some major chatter marks or something?

Go look down the barrel of a Savage if you want to see real chatter marks. Doesn't seem to hurt the accuracy either. I would have shot it first to check accuracy. You would be surprised how awful a barrel can look and still shoot well.

None of my savage rifles look like that.

[Dolomite_supafly]

Maybe not in the rimfires then. I have never seen a centerfire Savage barrel that doesn't have chatter marks. Doesn't affect accuracy at all but it was a bit disheartening the first time I noticed them.

I may go split one of the Savage barrels I have laying around and post results.

_{I just picked up mine last week and ran to bore light it after reading this. Mine looks fine. I've only put 50 rounds through it .}

_{I was shooting at a spinner target at 25 meters and it seemed fairly accurate. It does have the ugliest trigger I have}

_{had the pleasure to shoot in awhile. I have been reading up on it at Rimfire Central. There seems a lot of different opinions on how to smooth/straighten it out.}

What causes those chatter marks? Is it the machine that rifles the bore?
