I've been contemplating my next build and decided on a 14.5" DD or BCM LW Middy with a permed Battlecomp.
Has anyone documented any accuracy loss in the LW barrels, CHF or CMV during long strings of fire?

Personally I cannot tell any difference
I've asked this question before. From what I understand, barrel heats up and the point of impact changes, but not a whole lot. I have no first hand experience, just what I've been told. I dont know the accuracy differnce at a distance over 100 yards but I hope this helps.
I think in concept that is whats suppose to happen. But I cannot tell the difference. Maybe if you were doing mag dumps in full auto, then trying to make a precise shot? I don't know, I wouldn't be concerned with it though.
Point of impact change as opposed to what?
As opposed to group size increasing.
The disadvantage of a pencil barrel is that once you get one, you will feel all your other AR15s are too heavy and want to change them over too. And now I feel that an M1A is a complete pig.
It would seem to me that high volume firing and high level of accuracy are somewhat mutually exclusive. I'm not going to deploy the same gun for the two different roles.
I would never use a pencil barrel for anything.
It would be interesting to have someone run a controlled test. Shoot a 5 round group for accuracy slow fire, fire a 30 round mag and then shoot another 5 round group, with a couple different barrel profiles. Then compare the before and after on each one.
Do they make a ransom rest for AR's?
