[QUOTE="Dave King, post: 32415, member: 3"] JDJones75 My understanding of tight bore barrels is that they allow (force might be a better term) a tighter seal and less gas leakage. I believe polygonal barrels are also manufactured with a tight bore for this purpose. I have no proof of this personally, to small a sample for a real analysis I guess. I do believe that the monometal bullets do not like to be squeezed too tight and the pressure may go high when using them in a tight bore barrel. [/QUOTE]
