Barrel pitting?

[fatcat4620]

I have a type 53 with some bad pitting in the barrel but has a good crown and strong rifling. How much does pitting affect accuracy?

Take it out and shoot it. Some pitted bores will shoot remarkably well.

I an trying to make that happen. The trigger is unreal. No take up at all, just squeeze and snap.

I agree. Shoot it if you can.

I have a 1903 Springfield sporter with a rather pitted bore. If I do my part, it is a sub MOA shooter with peep sights.
