I'm looking at maybe doing this to my PSL:

Black Horse Arsenal Complete Package

The short-stroke is supposed to increase accuracy and allow me to shoot heavy ball ammo in the PSL. My question is...have any of you done this to your PSL and if so what were the overall accuracy gains?
 
The PSL was considered a "Designated Marksman" rifle,they were used to keep the enemies heads down while the guys with AK's got in range. It's my opinion that they will never be accurate for more than a couple rounds due to the outer diameter of the barrel. The hotter they get the worse they shoot. There is a company that sleeves barrels with a heat absorbing material and basically makes them bull barrels but the name escapes me.
 
I dont know a lot about Black Horse Arsenal but i now there is few threads on the akfiles.com about them.
lots of other Psl stuff too

Teludyne Tech is the name of the company and the system is called Straight Jacket.
