Savage ported barrel question

[sharpshooter]

If it's threaded on and blended, it's not integrated, it just the same size as the barrel diameter. If it was integrated it would be machined into the barrel. Chances are the exit hole at the muzzle is larger than .277". Years ago a few outfits offered these ported barrel recoil reducing services, but they proved to be very ineffective.

That would be why I put integrated in quotes. There are still several companies doing these breaks. But either way, its a break, regardless of the symantecs.
