    Had a crack at that, the only brush I had that would fit in there was a bit worn and didnt fit as snugly as it needed to so the measurement was not repeatable unfortunately.

    Wrap a patch around it to make a tight fit

    Ill give that a crack. This might be a stupid question but do barrels wear evenly? what are the chances that the middle of the barrel has worn more that either end?

    Very possible, all manner of things occur inside barrels
