LimbSaver Barrel De-Resonator?

[AvsFan]

Gent's,

I've watched a few episodes of "Choose Your Weapon" on the Outdoor Channel (actually watching it right now). Anyway, these guys do a lot of long range hunting with various big and/or exotic calibers. I've noticed they like to use these "LimbSaver Barrel De-Resonators" on their barrels. My question is - do these things work and what's the real benefit? If so, would it work on a precision/tactical rifle or, is it just snake oil?

If you liked the Browning BOSS you'll love this!

I have always wondered the same thing. I had a friend who had one on his hunting rifle and thought it worked well but couldn't explain why it worked.

AvsFan,

I have one sitting in the garage. They are suppose to control the harmonics of barrel whip. You adjust the de-resonator to shrink your groups. It works well with shooting factory ammo. You can use it with handloads, but what's the point! Send me a pm if you want it, just cover shipping $5 bucks.
