.236/.237?

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
if i build 237's all day long, and my button wears...
i can then produces 236's for a while...

seems to me a 236 is easy to produce from a worn 237 button.....

someone thinking backwards ???

Wow, I learned something here. A worn out button makes LARGER diameter bbl. Magic. I must have missed something.

I can tell that a lot of folks know nothing about rifling, button rifling especially. Why is it the cut rifle people offer the 236 and 237 bores?? Maybe their hooks are worn out. You do not produce a bore with a button.
 
yep i was thinking backwards..
not the first time...
how boring
 
Worn Button BS

The idea of using a button that used to make a .237 bore, but after being worn, will make a .236 bore is only feasible if it were a bore burnishing button only, not a rifling button. If it were a rifling button that is worn .001" in bore diameter, then it would be worn even more for the groove portion. This would yield a groove of around .2415". This groove dimension would never pass, and high pressures would result. Maybe it is a magic button that only wears on the land portions.

And I forgot to mention earlier. The .236 Bore is the standard 6mm bore, not the .237. A 6mm bore is .23622. The .237 bores have become more popular in short range BR. They cause less bullet distortion while maintaining adequate engraving on the bullet.

It is opening morning on Sage Chickens here in Wyoming. Been tuning the dogs up on Ruffed Grouse for the past couple of days.

Passed up a shot on a really nice buck speed goat. He was so close I could of pistol whipped him out the window. Season doesn't close until October 30th.

Best wishes
