What type of rifling does Remington use?

Remington uses "hammer forged" rifled barrels on all production rifles. Their custom shop uses mostly "button rifled" barrels unless the customer specifies a barrel made by a custom barrel maker who uses the "cut-rifled" process to install rifling into a barrel blank.

How is the rifleing achieved in a rifle?

Originally by drawing a cutting tool through the bore that cut one groove at a time. Now it may be done with a rifling button (made of VERY hard metal) that is pulled through the barrel, cutting all the grooves in one pass. Barrels can also be hammer forged- a rod with all of the grooves on it is placed in a heated barrel, and the barrel hammered to shrink it onto the rod- which, when the barrel cools, is removed.
