Parkerizing: what effect on bore??
Does parkerizing adversely affect the finish of a rifle bore? If so, then one must plug the bore and breach with something prior to parkerizing the barrel. What do you use as a plug?

Thanks,

Jordan

Jordon, Yes the parkerizing solution will have an adverse effect on the bore by "etching" it. I plug both ends of the bore with silicone plugs that were purchased from Brownell's.
