Does anyone know how remington 700 and browning a bolt factory barrels are rifled? I know ruger m77's are hammer forged...

do rem and browning hammer forge their barrels to, or do they button or cut rifle them?

Thanks

hammer forge. Only large factory rifles I think are button rifled are savage.

If in dout call Rem. to find out for sure

Cold hammer forged. BTW, here's a link to some info on the hammer forging process in case you're interested:
