Is this a viable thing to do? I have a 308 ar barrel that either has a rough chamber, rough locking lugs, or both as evidenced by the unwillingness of new ammo to chamber without help and the accompanying marks that start at about 1/8" below the shoulder and end approximately the same distance from the case head.
I have headspaced (and it passes) the barrel and you have to help the go gauge into battery. I cringed when I realized it wouldn't come out with a simple tug and I basically had to tap it out. The same with the brass cased ammo. Something is amiss with the chamber. I already have a silicon carbide hone coming from Brownells to see if this remedies the problem.
