[QUOTE="Michael Courtney, post: 864480, member: 28191"] There are too many confounding factors to compare the accuracy of two different barrels and ascribe the difference to any single factor such as twist rate or bullet velocity or stability or possible damping rate. Benchrest shooters prefer to shoot the lowest twist rates that will stabilize their preferred bullet, and they also tend to pick flatbase, shorter bullets that stabilize at lower twist rates than needed to shoot the long, high BC bullets preferred by long range shooters.
