I have a relatively new (500 rounds) Bushmaster .223. On the barrel crown there is what I can best describe as chrome overplating; that is, the chrome plating comes out of the bore and is on the muzzle face. I asked Bushmaster about this and they told me it is normal and that the overplating will disintegrate over time. I am noticing that the chrome is chipping away, close to the muzzle. Am I being sold a bill of goods, or is this normal?
