[QUOTE="FAL Shot, post: 471018, member: 27328"] What I found was that after I "detuned" my barrel by adding the bipod, I could "retune" the barrel to better-than-original accuracy by adding the X-ring. This is significant as it allows you to add accessories such as lights and lasers to your sporter barrel, as you have almost nowhere else to mount them, and you can at least get your original accuracy back. The air jet nozzle is a good idea.....if you have the high pressure air. If your scope is mounted low on a sporter, the X-ring is going to obstruct light into the scope a bit. Not an issue with AK, AR or FAL type rifles that have gas tubes above the barrel and high sights as a result. Mounting a scope really low over the barrel is a bit overrated. If using an X-ring on a sporter bolt rifle, it's a good idea to buy high mounts. Only heavy barrels will need the big X-ring. The small X-ring only sticks up 0.5" above the barrel surface. Leupold VXL scope lovers are a bit out of luck, as that scope design allows an X-ring to more effectively block light to the scope. An ordinary scope mounted at least 1/4" above the barrel will get almost no light blockage from a small X-ring. [/QUOTE]
