If I were putting together a rifle for target shooting or hunting I would not get a chrome lined barrel. But for range plinkng, all around use, or SD use I'd go chrome lined.

I realise I will most likely never actually use the gun for the purpose it was designed. But in the unlikely event it ever has to be used for that purpose, then I want it set up to give me any availible advantage, no matter how small.
