Is the rifling on the Sharon shallow groove like the later TC barrels?
I just checked mine - they are all shallow groove - but I do not have any spade barrels left. All I have are the 'M' and '<>' barrel markings. Plus 3 Renegades with true TC barrels.

I think all the Renegades would be shallow as they all were 1-48 twist rates
