[QUOTE="rc508pir, post: 3011809, member: 40091"] Nitrided barrels are not as hard as Chrome. The hardest nitride treatment right now is about 66 to 68 Hrc hardness. Chrome is 70 Hrc hardness. The bonded chrome lining is slightly thicker as well than the nitrided surface. A 1k full auto torture test will have slightly less wear in the chrome lined barrel, than the nitrided barrel What does that mean. Notta thing for the average shooter, or the hardcore shooter. If your gong to fire full auto, you might get 9k rounds of use with nitride as opposed to 10k with a hard chrome lined barrel [/QUOTE]
