| | Muzzle (firearm) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The muzzle of a firearm is the end of the barrel from which the projectile will exit. | | | Precise machining of the muzzle is crucial to accuracy, because it is the last point of contact between the barrel and the projectile. | | | The contour of a muzzle is typically designed to keep the rifling safe from damage, so it is commonly recessed or protected by a convex "crown". |

| | 11 Degree Target Crown |
| | The primary purpose of a firearm muzzle crown is to provide propellant gases a resistance free path away from all parts of the projectile as it exits the bore of the barrel. | | | As cutting goes deeper into muzzle cutting slows because more muzzle face is contacting cutter surface. | | | Shown above the ruff muzzle is ready for finish cutting after about eight careful cutting sessions. |
