Can anyone tell me what is the real advantage of a swamped barrel? :: Thanks a bunch.

less heat waves from a hot barrel
I would think it would take many more shots to heat up a straight barrel than a swamped barrel. More metal on the straight barrel would make it similar to a modern target barrel. If my life depended on accuracy, I would go for the straight barrel :m2c:
I have never seen a rifle built for accuracy made with a swamped barrel. :grey:Anyone who thinks they are better than the swamped barrel has never handled or fired one.
Then you've not been looking very hard. :winking:I have never seen a rifle built for accuracy made with a swamped barrel. :grey:Anyone who thinks they are better than the swamped barrel has never handled or fired one.
Several of my guns hold national records. They have swamped barrels.
