The barrel in question was just chambered last year, and has 300-400 rds down it. Only 25 of those rounds were jacketed.
My local Smith is concerned that it is a heat treating issue from the manufacturer. And yes the manufacturer has these photos, just waiting on a response and seeing what everyone else thinks.
It also has a matching ring 1/3 of the way from the bore wall to the outer edge on both muzzle and chamber ends of the barrel that I have not gotten photos of yet.
P.S.A- yes I know there is still copper fouling in some of these photos. It was scrubbed 3 times prior to photos but I was running out of time today.
