Barrel Bore Dimensions

To All:
What has been your experience w/ barrels dimensions across the lands for custom match grade ss barrels?

I know that some companies such as Lilja offer a "tightbore" vs standard, however what are the approximate dimensional differences? Is a tight bore 0.217" or less?

At what point does the dimension across the lands swage the projectile too much and result in a degredation to the accuracy potential of the barrel?

I am also curious as I recently rebarreled my rifle and I am in the process of doing some inspections on that bore using precision ground pins (.0001" increments). I was looking to get a feel as to how "shot out" this barrel really is, provided that this can actually be determined via measurements.

Thanks in advance.
