Its part of a rifling process.
1. Hammer Forged: very smooth. YOu have to go to extra steps to get accurate barrels as its not a precision process . Some do, most don't. 2. Button Rifled: Very rough, custom barrel makers lap but Savage does not so it looks like the Alcan circa 1948 (rough). None of them are smooth but custom is much smoother. 3. Cut Rifled: Also need to be lapped but this is purely custom rifle area now, high end.
