[QUOTE="bailey1474, post: 100507, member: 3249"] I think the whole key here is CAN BE as accurate. With out a doubt there are skinny bbls out there that have shot some great groups. The problem is the load has to be precisely tuned to the bbl. The skinny bbl WILL NOT shoot as good, day in and day out under varying temps and atmospheric conditions using the same load. Could you tune the load for every condition? Sure you could, but who wants to have ump-teen different loads when you could just have a heavier bbl that will vibrate w/a much lower magnitude that will shoot the SAME LOAD into respectable groups under most all conditions. Now you still may have to have a summer and winter load, but 20-30 degrees won't make much difference. [/QUOTE]
