I was looking at an M44 at a gun shop today, and the owner informed me that it had been counterbored. Why is this process done? It seems like it would decrease accuracy. Is this standard for milsurp rifles?
Yip and that's why I wouldn't want one. There's plenty around so pick up one with a good bore!It improves accuracy of old, worn rifles.
A counterbore in and of itself means very little, unless you're talking about a sniper, ex-sniper, or a Finn.
