In my experience a rifle or any rifled firearm that shoots terrible is always improved with a recrowning

In the article where it is really ground into the barrel and get good groups
That is similiar to what you do a M1 Garand that has cleaning rod wear at muzzle.

You counterbore with a drill bit to clean up the damage.
and then follow that with a plioted lapping tool.
