Kevin, I can almost see the grin on your face when you wrote that.

But you know what, it must have twitched a couple brain cells in my head. What happens to a bullet right after it leaves the rifling? Does it expand thermally? Does it expand due to centrifugal force? Or both?

When the bullet swages into the rifling it probably grows in length a small amount and when it leaves the rifling it snaps back elastically some smaller amount?

Probably good questions for VarmintAl.
