No taper barrel

[Donald]

I been wondering (always a dangerous thing). Has anyone in CF used a straight no taper barrel. I don't mean one that is 1.2 or so but down like .875 or so like the RF shooters. You should be able to loose enough weight to have a pretty heavy tuner and still make weight even in LV. Curious mind with not much else to do......

I chambered a reverse taper. Jay Lynn Gore has it. It shoots pretty well and I believe that he will spend more time with it this winter.

I know one guy who tried a straight taper barrel on a 6PPC and it was very sensitive.... Didn't work.
