Smoothtwist X rifling

Just a quick pic showing the difference between the lead in & muzzle end.

Thanks for sharing! Can they be installed wrong if not careful? BTW it looks like a new liner?

 

[Michael]

Same one, I just cleaned it up. The o-rings are tricky to keep in place when reinserting the liner. I used a tiny bit of grease to help them slide in. Just take your time to twist & push the liner in (& of course make sure its pointing the correct direction).

Hey

Any chance we could get a pic of the rifling? Very interested in seeing the interior of the smooth twist x barrel.

"Michael"n (& of course make sure its pointing the correct direction).

So...what were the results of "intentionally" pointing the liner the opposite way. ;-)

Maybe a couple of smaller o-rings can be added to “keep” the o-ring spacer from sliding.

Is the diameter of the outer tube still 14mm? What is the size of the liner?

IMO they should have done a shallow groove for the o ring. saving, ca-ching Kronas rolling
Time flies there will be the next IWA soon! I have the feeling the IWA is just a market research, no real products Kalibrgun is doing the same annoying
Sci-fi.

Here's a few more pics I snapped.

Pretty cool pics of the rifling. Thanks for sharing Mike.

Interesting!, Is the tag refer to twist rate 1-28 tw?

 

[NL-Law]

Thanks for the rifling pics!

Great pictures!
Can you post pictures of a pellet pushed through the barrel. The rifling seems very subtle. I wonder if the pellets slip through with a slower twist than the barrel like on smooth twist.

I can push a pelletpellet thru next time I remove the barrel

And for those of you curious about indexing; the barrel cannot be indexed because it has a notch that lines up the transfer port, however the liner can be indexed. I suggest using an engraving pen to mark 12, 3, 6, 9 o'clock on the muzzle end of the liner.

I believe so

rifleing is very much like the poly barrel the raw offers it looks like
