[QUOTE="Lightvarmint, post: 196826"] You get basically the same result by adjusting the seating depth so the bullet exits the barrel on a min or max node. No rocket science there. Browning claims to be the inventor and has the patent on the barrel tuners I believe. The Boss system has been around longer than the first 22RF barrel tuner. Cause I know the guys who started messing with the tuners initially. You can even take factory loaded ammo and adjust the seating depth and it will shoot on par with the best hand loads. I do it for my friends and they all have factory guns shooting factory loaded ammo (tuned by me) and to date every gun will shoot under .375 at 100 yards. Actually, all shot under .3 except for one finicky 338 RUM and it only shot .375. That is way better than most of the custom gun guys on this website guarantee on a $3000 rifle with handloads most of the time. Tuners originated with RF since you could not adjust the loaded round. If you can adjust the loaded round, tuners are less necessary. However, they will significantly tame an ill-shooting barrel. It is fun to have several lots of ammo and the associated tuner settings for them and shoot tiny groups with different lots of ammo by just turning to a different tuner setting. James [/QUOTE]
