What am I seeing in this new Barrel?

Roger that!

Bc’z —no just began with that 322 load @.005. It shoots in my others very well. Hope to do more in day or two. What the bore scope reveals just looks weird to me, like the bullets are only touching grooves in the middle 1/3 of each groove

This ain't your other rifles, its an animal all its own. Personally I'd load 20 at a moderate charge +.020 in the lands and start with a seating test.

Gotcha, will do

Gotcha, will do

Let us know how it works out.
Once seating depth is determined by all means step on the gas.

A great bullet-maker suggested I try 12 twist

Let us know how it works out.

I’ll let you know. Thanks everybody!

“If” the picture on the left is the “crown”, it looks awfully poor to Me ?

I was getting ready to say the same thing. Looks like a notch in it

Nicely bedded, thanks

In the second picture, second land (I guess it's a land silver) up from the bottom has a slight little line that looks goldish or brown that parallels the edge. Maybe copper??? Other than that it looks good to me. If a borescope told the tale the barrel shop owners would have all the Hummers, and the guys they sponsor would win all the matches. I think the only thing I ever learned from a bore scope is if I cleaned it proper. Maybe that's enough??

I sure wouldn't make any judgements based on just one powder. N130, LT30 &LT32, Benchmark, the various 8208's...and more... are all players in the 222's. Your choice of a 12 twist is a good one. -Al

Al- Loaded a few last night with N130, some just at touch and few .010” in. Rain then HEAT the next several days so they may not get unleashed immediately! I have done 8208 in .223 but not tried it yet in .222. Hit a very good load immediately with it in .a 223 Wylde. Thanks-Wendel
