[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1228828, member: 90399"] My most accurate rifle is not free floated and has a thin barrel. There are a few things about the rifle that I would like to change or upgrade but I have not. I don't actually understand why it shoots a particular load so well and I'm scared to change a single thing about the rifle for fear of potentially changing the harmonics. Free floating is just the most popular way today of keeping harmonics consistently predictable. A certain era not long ago it was popular to put thin strips of cork under the barrels. I think the main reason free floating has risen to be the most popular way of getting consistent harmonics is to avoid POI shifts when shooting off hand vs bipod vs off bags etc. Meaning, the forearm part of the stock isn't affecting the POI.
