Hi there,
I've read several posts saying that guns with muzzle guides (or QLA on the TC rifles) usualy don't shoot conical bullets well.
I understand that accuracy depends on a good muzzle crown, and a muzzle guide can be a bad thing for the crown: difficult to inspect the condition of the crown, the muzzle guide could be off center, maybe the process to drill the muzzle guide makes it difficult to ensure a good crown, etc.
But if the crown is bad, won't it affect accuracy with all types of projectiles? How can a gun with a bad crown have good accuracy with sabots?
I understand some guns just happen to like one type of projectile better, and one specific gun can shoot sabots well and conicals poorly. But how can a bad cronw affect a conical and not a sabot?
Thanks,
Marc
