[QUOTE="CB11WYO, post: 1029798, member: 57339"] Dad was looking into a Gain-Twist barrel and one particular manufacturer mentioned the greater potential for accuracy due to the following... As the bullet progresses down the bore and meets ever increasing resistance due to the ever tightening twist the barrel is pulled steadily forward therefore reducing barrel whip/harmonic inconsistencies. This particular manufacturer said they typically only "gain" 1" breech is 1:10 and muzzle is 1:9 Makes some sense inside my brain bucket at least... What say ya'll? Any experience with gain twist barrels? What other pros/cons are there to gain twists? Thanks guys. -Clint [/QUOTE]
