[QUOTE="Stonewall, post: 37132, member: 3198"] I have a Ron Smith barrel with a gain twist. I don't have a chrony (yet) so I can't confirm the increase in speed. I will attest that it is a tack driver. I have only put 20 rounds through it so far and have been breaking it in. My groups thus far have been between .25 and .5 inches at 100 yds. To be clear, it is a target weight barrel in .308. I have another of his barrels in .308 on a hunting rifle. It was a re-bore which he said probably wouldn't be as accurate. Nevertheless, it still shoots under 1" groups regularly so I can't complain. Once I get my chrony I will compare the velocity of gain twist against a standard twist. [/QUOTE]
