I wish I saved the photo from the old AirgunAdvice....
Someone posted a photo of a Porting Job Gone Wrong!

It seems someone drilled the port a bit too deep!
He drilled down into the opposite side of the Bore!
So Deep, he hit the indexing hole!!
So you can see light while looking through the Port!

Some guys are Dangerous using Power Tools!!

the black dot at the top is were the location dimple is.funny enough it did more or less line-up with the the action port but angled away as it enters bore.this was done on a silco blank by someone

Well I am thinking of an Angle Porting on my .177 LW Poly barrel blank.
But angle the right direction, pointed in the direction of flow down the barrel!
Like the angle port in the Black Acteal Valve-Body!

yesbi guess you would need a slightly longer probe to miss the port as it would come out a couple of mm further forward
