Any one use one? Unfortunately, my .257 wby HAS to have one on! I took El Chupacabra (the fully custom .257 wby)out with her favorite VLD load... Moved the "donut ring" around on the end of the barrel... end of the barrel, half way down, all the way down.. Didnt matter, .75" groups... Take it off... only shot two shots and they were about 2" apart! I shot 4 - 3 shot groups with it on the barrel... All bullet could have been combined for about a 1.2-1.5 inch group! I guess those ugly things work! (here is how she looks with one on) ![[Linked Image]](http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh250/firstcoueswas80/012-1.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i258.photobucket.com/albums/hh250/firstcoueswas80/deertday2008044.jpg) She works either way, but shoots better with it on than off.

sam...does it help with his accuracy, or just the vibrations?

From what I hear at work accuracy is iffy but velocity is greatly improved...

teehee...
but...you must always remember to put blue tape over it...
i don't know if it will keep the erosion down but it will keep dirt out if you're "busy" outside.

Back on topic.
I would rather work up a handload than shoot a rifle with such a queer device.
