    Fire lap the breech end
    It's MG so I'm not sure I want to try. It shoots FTX fine. When I slugged it, the slug almost falls through to the breech end. Late model before Remlin.
    Whatever!

    popper it may be like some of the S&W revolvers. Where the barrel screws into the frame the bore gets restricted because of the tight thread crush and it's only a little bit to lap out. Might be the same on your rifle. Any way you can slug from the breech and see how far the slug goes when it gets loose?
