[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1444520, member: 2736"] I believe that a good crown "Does" make a difference. If you have a 1 MOA rifle, it probably would not make that much difference. But if you have a rifle that is sub 1/10th MOA it could/will make a difference. The problem proving it is that if anyone has a sub 1/10th MOA rifle, they would surely not saw the barrel off to find out. The last thing that the bullet sees is the crown, and all though the effects may be small, a poor crown can only hurt accuracy. I have seen benchrest shooters re crown many times to get the best group. I always thought that some of the reason was to tune the barrel harmonics. The other thing is not knowing if a poor crown has hurt your accuracy or not, so why not put a good crown on it and be done. If a poor crown doesn't hurt the accuracy, why does every weapon have one, and why are they always recessed ? The recess it there to protect the actual crown (The part the bullet sees is In My Opinion the most important part), the rest of the crown that protects it can be many different shapes. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
