Side note, we sure have been resurrecting a lot of old posts these days. Oh yeah, recycle, reuse!

That's not necessarily true. When I contacted them, they said single porting was more accurate that unported. This is why I bought a single ported barrel.

From what I've heard, it depends on which Palmer you talk to... I suppose there can't be much difference if they can't agree on it.

Re: Which Brass?
6" matte black unported, .690 If I had money to spend, I'd roll with that.

Re: Which Brass?
I would strongly suggest .685

I get better groupings when I have a good paint to bore match. When my paint to bore match is poor, my groupings open up. I have stuffed every type of paint down the bore, even paint that had to be "assisted" by force into the barrel. No breaks.
