Two-groove rifling as well as oval bore were invented in 1832 by then captain Carl W.E. Berner (1785 – 1862), Duke of Brunswick’s foot guards, jaeger company. His original design had an oval bore, soon modified to two distinctive grooves. In 1837 Berner’s two-groove rifling was adopted by the British military as a feature of their “Brunswick rifle”.
