Need a new barrel

Plus 1, if the bulge is mid way down the barrel it should not dramaticaly effect the accuracy especialy at SASS distances.

If its just a slight bulge, have you tried shooting it? With lead bullets at CAS velocities a lot of guns with bulged barrels shoot just fine.

Plus 2, shot a marlin for three years after a bulge then sold it for a 73. New owner has shot it ever since, its had a bulge for at least 8 yrs and I know of several others shooting rifles with tha same.

In the day we had even kept Revolvers in-service for training that have had bulged barrels that maintained accuracy out to 25 yards on a man size target.

 

A nick on the crown will be bigger problems than a bulge halfway down the barrel
