nick/scratch in chamber of rem 700

[rugbydave]

I was giving my Rem 700 a thorough cleaning after the BC Precision Champs this weekend since it was pouring rain on Saturday and I noticed this scratch/nick at the rear of my chamber at about the 8 o'clock position. I'm concerned there could be accuracy ramifications? I haven't been back to the range yet to re-zero or see if the accuracy has changed, figured I'd ask and see what people with more knowledge thought?

Thanks,

I doubt it will have any effect on accuracy... it may mark up your brass a bit...

If it were mine, I would just remove the little burr. The tiny nick would do no harm whatsoever.
Excellent photos, by the way.

Thanks for the input! I kinda figured it might just scratch my brass but that doesn't really bother me. Credit for the photos goes to my iPhone, haha

I'd do exactly the same too personally, little rub/smooth with emery cloth. No biggie.

I'd pull the barrel toss it in the lathe and chamfer/polish it
