    It's at the forcing cone end.

    That's even weirder, you could perhaps understand it at the bore end where it might makes some difference but rifled then smooth would seem like friction would stop the pellets spin before it left the barrel.

    Yeah I know, it makes no sense to me either. Doesn't seem to affect the accuracy though.
