Is anyone still doing this on mag barrels? Tiny paint is just rolling down after it passes the detent. I know I could get a docs adapter and just use cocker threaded insert barrel, but don’t have one of those either and asking for the masses.
Thanks!

I’ve been following these. Pretty sweet. I won’t be playing for at least a few weeks so didn’t want to snag a set that someone else could be actively using out there.

Not to go too far down the accuracy/velocity/efficiency/consistency rabbit hole, but is bore matching still a thing? I’ve been mostly out since freaks and pipes were gaining traction.

There are more available now, pulled a set off the printer last night, have another set that should be done in an hour or so also.

bore matching is still a thing, but it won't prevent the ball from moving forward. Paint has also changed to more of an egg shape so it isn't as consistent ball to ball. Usually makes it easier to overbore a bit.
