This part I quoted pretty much sums up what I too think at this point. I think it's harder to define the node on the stiffer barrels, but they may just be less critical as dispersion is so much less, hence the wide variety of loads that shoot really well, verses the finiky lighter whippy ones. Interesting to hear more peoples thoughts on this too, yours echo mine exactly. I wish I could be of more help but, I haven't gained much more insight on this one for a while now. [/QUOTE]
