[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1218728, member: 2736"] Good question. I'm not bragging, But I wrote the book on tuning because no one else has even tried. The best attempt made was to add more ports (The Russians tried all the way past 15 ports) and they discovered that there was an optimum number of ports and that any more did not improve recoil reduction. We found that Hatchers notes concurred with our findings some where between 4 and 5 depending on the cartridge, bore, powder charge, bullet weight, velocity and the rifle weight. the only thing the 6th port added was length. I do not tell anyone what the parameters are for tuning, because as long as I am making them it will remain a secrete (Like Colonel Sanders chicken). J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
