Best barrel contour for follow up shots

Re: Best barrel contour for follow up shots

Need more details.

What caliber?
What round?
How many follow up shots?
Are you looking at premium barrels?

Anything in the Palma light, med, heavy range should server you well. But without the details it's hard to know.
 
Re: Best barrel contour for follow up shots

Most light weight barrels can handle 1-3 follow up shots such as those in a hunting situation. If you are talking about competition for example where you will be shooting round after round, I would definitely opt for the heavier contour. Caliber has a lot to bare on your question also.
