Our most costly swamped rifle barrel, made in the USA, by L.C. & Liston Rice,
Rice Muzzle Loading Rifle Barrels
cost a bit more than other barrels, due to the extra attention given to the bore and surfaces. All bores are reamed, rifled, and "ball burnished" to a mirror finish, with a more uniform bore diameter than can be achieved with reaming alone. Match quality, no break-in period, no hand lapping is required. This barrel will shoot accurately from the very first shot.
We offer the 42" length Rice swamped barrels in three profiles (weights), depending on caliber. Sometimes called the
John Bivins
profile, he often used this 42" barrel profile on his extraordinary longrifles.
Our ‘C' profile .54 caliber
Golden Age
barrel has a 1.062" breech, .812" waist, .875" muzzle, and round bottom rifling.
Cut Rifling Specifications:
Cut rifled, each bore has seven lands and grooves.
Grooves are cut .016" deep, with round bottom rifling.

Rice barrels do not require lapping or extensive shooting to break-in.
Crown is 60 degree lathe cut and polished.
Rice Muzzle Loading Rifle Barrels
are set between centers and milled octagonal, insuring a centered bore, concentric with the exterior, with no "run-out". Each barrel is stress relieved in an atmosphere controlled electric furnace, to eliminate work hardening or barrel warp, and to dampen harmonic vibrations or barrel whip.
After the rifling has been cut, each bore is "ball burnished". A carbide bore-sizing die is pulled through the barrel, to insure bore dimension uniformity, eliminating any tight or loose spots inside the barrel. This critical procedure leaves the top of the lands smooth and polished, equaling the traditional lead lapping procedure. Rice barrels are Match grade quality, with bench rest capability. Rice barrels do not require lapping or extensive shooting to break-in.
