[QUOTE="elkaholic, post: 344413, member: 13833"] I talked at length with the Bartlein barrel folks and they told me that gain twist "does not" increase velocity, at least in any significant amount. They also stated that the jury is still out on more or less accurate. I have heard that if the rifling is perfect all the way to the muzzle, the accuracy can not be improved by gain twist. Having said that, a slight gain can stabilize the bullet at the muzzle in a less than perfect barrel. I do know that there is at least one 100 yd. benchrester that is setting some records with a gainer. I just ordered on for my 300 Sherman from Bartlein.....Rich [/QUOTE]
