My bad, I took this bit to be saying that rifling was new to the scene, rather than new to industrial-scale manufacture.
Oh yeah. My bad. I guess I said that wrong. There were more advances in the rounds that made the rifling better, but I was trying to simplify it.
I was interested in the Civil War cause the weapons advanced faster than the way we fight wars. You wouldn't see people lining up and walking toward another army now.
