ABSTRACT:
Improved ratchet rifling with a full gain twist is provided in the form of a bore portion having a smooth bore for initially receiving and holding a projectile without marring the projectile followed by gradually emerging ratchet rifling contour with each spin-imparting edge progressively deepening, at least by crest or minor-radius portions "falling" inward toward the axis of the bore and as an alternative by base or major-radius portion increasing in distance from the bore axis, in either case resulting in projectile-seating increasing in predetermined proportion to twist along the barrel.
