It is very amazing to read about the intensive labor and operations involved in making a Krag barrel.
The complete chambering was done before a barrel was ever screwed onto a receiver. The barrel was a completely finished unit, before assembly onto an action. (I wish the article had described barrel 'proofing'. As I understand the process, 'proofing' was done before a barrel was rifled). |
