The new shotgun I picked up seems to have a section of wear that looks somewhat like rifling right at the beginning of the barrel, maybe 3 or 4 inches from where the bolt sits when there's a shell chambered. I can't tell how deep it is - it's too far in to feel it with a finger - but I'm assuming that it's from shooting rifled slugs, since it looks roughly like the rifling on a slug, except that it's about 2-3 inches long.
Normal?
Nothing to be concerned about?
I shot a good dozen 00 buck shells out of it on New Years Day, with no failures...but being new with shotguns I figured I'd ask rather than lose an eye a couple of boxes of shells in.
