Thanks for the post and feedback. We have many people that are able to get MOA groups quite consistently. We will have our new barrels with a few weeks and we are excited to start releasing some of the new product line.

Thanks brother, and your kind words are always appreciated.

That sounds logical enough, however I believe the critical component in play here is bullet yaw coming out of the barrel, and how every different bullet has different amounts of yaw leaving the barrel.

Once the bullet clears the muzzle, a force called "yaw" comes into effect. Air friction combined with centrifugal force will cause the bullet to yaw and go into a spiral, reaching a diameter as large as a few inches. As the bullet travels down range the gyro effect from the spinning bullet will eventually dissipate yaw from which point on, the bullet will remain on a straight path and drop due to gravity. The point at which the yaw disappears is when the bullet "goes to sleep, or fully settles. The longer the bullet, the farther the bullet must travel before the spiral will dissipate.

Bullet length, weight, and RPM all determine the size of the yaw spiral, but for the sake of this topic..it's the bullet length were talking about b/t .223 bullets. The longer the bullet is in relation to the diameter, the larger the yaw spiral will be in diameter...thus The longer the bullet, the farther the bullet must travel before the spiral will dissipate.

Simple version.... envision spinning a toy top- at first its over spun and spirals, slows a bit then settles into a stable rotation on a single point, if it slows beyond a certain rpm, it wobbles and then tumbles.

Lastly here is a graphic that kinda illustrates my premise from above...

Thanks for taking the time to post your info. Your spinning top analogy makes it understandable. Appreciate it! Looking forward to more of your posts.

I'll be visiting family in Marana next month and, if time permits, will be stopping by. I have a new build in mind and the Sionics barrel is my leading contender right now.

New barrels?

[Iraqgunz]

18" SPR barrels that have a bead blasted look as opposed to the shiny. 16" midlength Melonite barrels, 11.5" Melonite barrels, as well as the standard chrome lined, etc.. We will also be looking at revising some of the profiles and possibly a lightweight barrel.

New barrels?

[Col_Crocs]

CMV melonite barrels or SS?

[shutup&shoot]

Question for IG. Will there be any stock or grip choices added to the line up?

Sweet.

Put a vote in for 11.5" with FSB

Would also love to see you guys get into .308 barrels

4150 Melonite. SS barrels will remain SS.

Stocks yes. Our thought is that people aren't paying for the stock or grip. That is why we have lowers with no stocks and the Ergo grip. You will be seeing more stocks like the B5 SOPMODs and Bravo. People are so picky about grips and stuff that we are trying to focus on the core of the weapon which is the rail, upper/lower, barrel, BCG, etc...
