I see it now, the brain fog is extra thick tonight.
No problem I was just thinking maybe I didn't do the math right after you asked

This isn't quite an accurate statement. The crown does offer a protection to the rifling indeed. But as to having little to no affect on accuracy, myself and every F class shooter will disagree. The crown provides a square / perpendicular departure in relationship to the rear of the projectile. This can be even more influential with regard to pellets. If a crown isn't square, the gas will escape on one side of the projectile, acting like a thrust vector. The projectile will wagg for a bit until the gyroscopic spin or drag stabilizes it. By that time the deviation in flight path has been established. This can be a benefit to the use of related bullets. Pellets that are out of square or have bent skirt will exhibit these characteristics. I've made blocks with reamed hole to fit pellets really precisely load the pellets into the holes and move in a figure eighton a peice of paper, until you see an even shine around the skirt, with crisp edge.
You did say properly prepared but offered no detail as to what proper is.
