[QUOTE="Bill_Long_Tan, post: 4337385, member: 57062"] It was likely done to remove cleaning rod wear and thereby improve accuracy. I have seen one go from about 6 moa to 3 moa at 100m after having that done. Many soldiers are less than careful when cleaning their rifles. The emphasis is more on speed or cleanlyness than care for the rifle. Add in segmented cleaning rods, corrosive ammo etc and the muzzel starts looking like an ice cream cone. Since the bayo lug is cool it is often preserved while cutting back enough to get an even crown with rifiling showing. The bullet leaves the muzzel more consistently so accuracy often improves.
