OCW not only negates contour worries in a good barrel but diminishes such voodoo as bullet lot # differences, powder lot # differences, case capacity varience issues, weather/temp/humidity related issues, and such.......

pure BS!!! temp changes pressure, humidity changes the burn rate of powder. OCW is a theory that has never been proven 100%.

It's understandable that some wouldn't understand how to apply simple laws of physics to a simple problem such as adjusting the speed of a projectile....in order to time it's exit within'fractions of a second upon it's exit from a piece of pipe. A certain apptitude and skill level would be required for optimum results and am thinkin' at least that of a McDonaldsfry cook.....

The word I used was "diminishes"....source a dictionary and see it's proven that word does not mean "eliminate".

Can only guess, thatyou too...are a west virginian.......

And yes...I've proven OCW to myself in every rifle I've R&D'd for, since I was introduced to it.
