I am curious as I'm sure a few others here on the forum, to learn more about the ECR rifling used on Newer S&W revolver barrels.
How is it done?
What are the advantages / disadvantages?
The depth and durability compared to the old cut and button rifled?
Does it stabilize some types of bullets better than others?
Is it used on all of the new revolvers?
When did S&W start using it?
Does it result in higher velocity and better accuracy?
Did it require changes to the formulation of the barrel steel?
Should certain cleaning solvents be used or avoided?
I'm hoping to hear from our new member 500swmag on this.
Thanks
