Cutting like this doesn't require stress relief like we see with hammer forging or button rifling. Depending on the cutter and the time taken I could see this being super accurate. What kind of lapping / polishing / finishing Danny do post?Danny Pederson in Prescot Az. has a Pratt & Whitney "Sine Bar Rifling" Machine and he is always backed up at least a year or more, just doing new barrels.
It's a long and slow process, but super fun to watch, and many say it's still superior to todays rifle barrel making capabilities! All I know is, the few barrels I have had him make for me shoot flawlessly!
Danny Runs the entire process on the machine, from start to finish, he has various cutters and jags and brushes to finish the barrel, never having to hand lap anything, the Machine can run at incredibly slow speed, so lapping and polishing is a snap!Cutting like this doesn't require stress relief like we see with hammer forging or button rifling.

It also has a sin bar option for progressive twists you really could tune this for optimal shooting of particular loads and bullet design.
It would be fun to run once or twice . I could imagine doing it for a living though might wear on a guy.
