[QUOTE="nealm66, post: 2233793, member: 114809"] I believe the tuner is just finding the spot in the barrel whip where the bullet is exiting in the same spot each time. I have had good luck tuning light barrels with the rubber things and tuners although the rifles all shot really good with factory ammo to start. It just allows me to shoot a different weight bullet at the velocity that I prefer. I just do a velocity test, check es/ds, as long as it’s not too crazy, I roll with it, load up 30-50, shoot 3 shot groups adjusting the tuner until I get the group I’m good with and fire 4-5 more. I’ll shoot an extra if I have a flier while adjusting. I shoot at 200 so I can see the spread better. Those rubber things are ugly as hell and almost shameful on some of the rifles I have them on like the weatherby in my profile. I used it to shoot 208 eldm’s which worked sweet but they came apart after 450 even at a mild speed. Not sure why but had same problem with the 6.5-300. Maybe the freebore? Any ways, that’s my process and experience [/QUOTE]
