"But then again, I've had a barrel come in that's .5% off on groove diameter and their response was a brush off, that it's within specs."
1/2 of 1% is just under 3/10,000 of an inch on a .50" diameter hole, is it possible to work to tighter tolerances than that? Is it possible you meant 5%? That would be .025" in a .50 bore.
