silverhawk Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Put just over 150 rounds through my rifle since it's been newly threaded but noticed like a rainbow colour around the crown. Is this normal? Barrels always cleaned before putting away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rem223 Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Is it just the result of re-bluing? Looks like its been heated and its oxidised to mimic bluing rather than hot blued in a tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougy Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 What's the rifle calibre ? I'm assuming its a RF to put 150 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
