[QUOTE="RyanG, post: 592401, member: 28392"] I agree..... however I am not seeing any evidence of that on the brass and its just with the varget powder.... well and the heavier bullets. I dont belive that I have tried to shoot the heavy bullets using the faster powder yet... it shoots the smaller grain bullets MUCH better.... Less than an inch at a 100.... I spent a couple of hours yesterday cleaning it and removing all the copper from the barrel. There was quite a bit so that may help some.... But the difference between the two bullet weights and powder is amazing.... If it is a barrel problem I will be replacing it with a 20" barrel.... I think that the 24 is an overkill.... I had a Bushmaster with a 11.5 inch barrel that would shoot an inch or better... of course we werent using them for anything longer than that.... and that was really a poke.... mostly 25 and under.... Back to the topic tho.... The way it shoots the faster powder better than my 20" got me to thinking... thought I would ask here Thanks Ryan [/QUOTE]
