From the Internet. Looks like Shilen barrels uses ratchet rifling

It is an offset and stepped type cut of the lands, sort of an " on off on off" cut hence ratchet.

The profile looks like this. I see it on quite a few period rifles.

Ah!! That makes sense now! Thank you.

Is this a newer built rifle with an antique barrel?

You know for the sake of the add I can't say for certain but personally, the lack of information about the manufacture, and style of the font makes belive it might be an older barrel.

There are no other markings other than Schneider and Browning
