This video from InRangeTV features a deep dive into firearm barrel technology with Faxon. Topics covered include the determination and manufacturing of twist rates, their impact on bullet stability for various calibers, and the practical implications of different twist rates (e.g., 55 grain bullets in a 1/7 twist). The discussion then moves to stress relieving techniques, including thermal and cryogenic treatments, and what to look for in a properly stress-relieved barrel. The video also touches on historical barrel quality, lead lapping, the concept and necessity of barrel break-in for different shooter types (average vs. bench rest competitors), and the impact of gas port size and location on rifle function.
