Описание: Almost all Civil War era rifle-muskets had a special form of rifling in their barrels, with grooves that were quite deep at the breech but got gradually shallower towards the muzzle. For some reason, this made them more accurate. People have been asking why ever since.

Progressive depth rifling is poorly understood and the source of much confusion and argument. Is it absolutely necessary? No. But does it make a military rifle shoot better? Yes.
