There's no way that would work, they would never achieve squared rifling. It is a hammered blank, then drilled to the land diameter, then a cutter is pulled through the resulting bore.

I've never verified rifling twist, so I don't know if any of my Ruger's are right - all I know is that they all shoot, and thats all I care about. The rest is just extraneous details.
