My Dad wants to get one of those Limbsaver Barrel resonators that slide down the barrel....Anyone use one and are they worth the $$?

If you are looking to shrink 3 shot groups at the local range .... sure, it will help....
If you are wanting to make the gun more accurate on game, ..... not gonna help.
a sighted in gun is sighted in .... which gives it its accuracy.... a barrel deresonator can not make it more sighted in.
And I have never fired a 3 shot group at a deer ... 1 shot and done.
Hope this helps..

I have the limbsaver recoil pad and the barrel deresonator on my 30-06. The recoil pad helped the most, and if I spent more time with the deresonator I imagine it would help more too. From what I understand, you're supposed to find the "sweet spot" on the barrel for it by shooting a group, then sliding the deresonator, and shooting another group until you find the spot where you get the best group.
I never did that, I just put it where I thought it looked best.

Too funny...
One of these days I'm gonna "invent" some goofy little thing that all pie-eye'd gadget getters will break down the doors for...then I'll be a richsumbitch.
Trouble is, I can't get my brain into a low enough gear to think of one............
On a serious note, Good Barrels will shoot with a properly tuned load, bad barrels will still shoot bad.
