Gain twist barrels?
Fascinating stuff and thinking! --both the gain twist and the left twist for RH-shooter. I am earmarking both for my next rifle. I'm especially intrigued with the potential for skid reduction on barrel entry--perhaps moreso than the potential to squeeze even more twist out of a barrel. It...- Nik S
