So, if heat is not the reason for hard-soldering then why aren't all barrels soft-soldered? My suspicion is that soft-soldering does not have the "sheer" strength (the force of acceleration and deceleration) necessary to insert and hold the barrels in a mono-block breech? 
 Is this true? Is there another reason for hard-soldering barrels?
