The bullet design is different from what they’re saying cause some bullets won’t stay together. The rapid increase in spin causing issues but it lowers pressure and somehow increases accuracy.

The newer cases are designed for higher pressures and excel. Geisele is coming out with a HICAR version for military and I’d assume already in some specialized units.

Kinda hitting an all new chapter as the game seems to be chasing faster and higher pressures to wring out some more from smaller rounds.
Better accuracy has yet to be proven. For now its just sales hype.

Don't think any competition shooters are running these barrels.

Don't get me wrong, I think it's a good idea... if the results are proven on the range and the field.

I'm a fan of Proof barrels, but I'm gonna wait for more reports from actual users before I pay the extra $$$$ for a PXT barrel.
