I see what you are saying. Neat info.So when you need to get the barrels back on face one way is to loosen the screw or unsolder and move the lump? or something like that.
No.
Quote=jeweler:] Seems to me dove tail would be easier and faster to make. Tell me if I am wrong a lot easier to re build.
No, the dovetail method is not easier to build, but is cheaper than the chopper lump method. Chopper lump tubes require forging techniques that are not required for the simple long round dovetail lump tubes. There is much skill required to machine and fit the dovetail lump, just as there is much skill required to machine and fit the chopper section of the chopper lump barrels. For instance the choppers have to be machined at the angle required for convergence of the shot paths.
