Why is rifling present in the bore of the barrel?
The rifling is there to spin the bullet, which gives greater accuracy.
What is the original part of the bore left after rifling grooves are formed?

What is the original part of the bore left after rifling?
When rifled, the rifling tool cuts the GROOVES. Material left between the grooves is the LANDS.
What direction does a bullet spin?
Direction of spin is dependent on the direction of the rifling on the inside bore of the barrel. A bullet will spin the same direction as the rifling.

What is the difference between a musket and a rifle?
A musket is smooth bored, like a shotgun's bore. A rifle has rifling inside the bore (grooves).
Why do tanks use smooth bore instead of rifling?
because it helps the tanks to move.
What are bullet striations?
The scratch marks left on the proyectile by the rifling lines of the inside of the bore (barrel).
What is a polygonal pistol barrel?
Most rifled firearms have a bore that is round, and has spiral grooves (the rifling) cut inside the bore. However, some guns (notably most Glock pistols) use a different system. The cross section of the bore is a polygon, with several flat surfaces. These surfaces twist in a spiral as you pass up the bore. It is claimed that produces a higher velocity than standard rifling, but it cannot be used with unjacketed lead bullets.
What are smooth bores?
Smooth bores are bores or barrels in guns that do not contain rifling. Rifling is made up of lands and grooves that cause the bullet to turn within the barrel of the gun. This turning gives the bullet and gun its accuracy. A smooth bore gun is much less accurate than a rifled bore gun.
Can you shoot the rifflins out of a 22 mag?
Not sure of what you are asking. If it is can you wear out the rifling in a .22 magnum firearm by shooting it- very unlikely. However, it IS possible to get a barrel so dirty that the rifling appears to "disappear", and accuracy is terrible. The cure is a thorough and proper cleaning of the bore with a good bore solvent, a bronze brush and rod, and patience.
