Pulled or pushed?They do both! If memory serves me correctly the new plant down in AL are all button barrels.
and hammer forged, while the fastest way to do it, does impart the most stress.
Pulled or pushed?
That is why Remingtons "walk" so much as the barrel heats up. The last one I had would start shifting poi on the 3rd shot from a cold bore.
I’m assuming pulled as well and not lapped leaving a bit to be desired.If I recall correctly pulled. I could be wrong.
This is what Remington has to say about it:
"Built off the legendary 700 action, the Remington 700 5-R sets the benchmark for accuracy and durability. Much like M-24, the barrel is cold hammer forged and features 5-R rifling. The 5R rifling profile increases barrel life expectancy, accuracy and creates less fouling and bullet deformation over time. Whether you’re a benchrest shooter or longtime hunter, look no further for better reliability and precision."
button gives a very smooth finish and size and hammer forged, while the fastest way to do it, does impart the most stress.
