Barrel Testing Results

[Everready73]

I read another forum where some members tested a Ballistic Advantage Hanson, Criterion, and Larue Predator barrels. They made a website www.scienceofthegun.com which has detailed chrono and accuracy results for several types of ammunition. i thought they did a great job with the testing and it is some pretty good info they put together. Just a heads up if anyone is considering these barrels or just likes looking at the data. They detail their testing methods and all the results are now up including chronograph results and group sizes with all the barrels tested. All groups shot were either 5 or 10 round. I believe they are going to do testing in the future as well so might be worth a bookmark

Readers should note that when testing with 5 round groups, the spread across several of them will can be 3X to 4X the size of the smallest one shot. And the first one shot can be the average, largest or smallest or somewhere in between their spread.

A single 5-shot group shows only what those five did and may not be representative of what their real accuracy is.

They did multiple 5 round groups and have results for extreme spread. Did you visit the website? It's definitely better info than you typically see on gun forums.... One three shot group
