Hey Guys!
I've been thinking again!
(oh no!) I was looking at some slow motion video of a bullet leaving the barrel. There was a lot of gas/particles escaping just before and coming around the bullet as it left the barrel. Here's my idea - Cutting small ports (similar to Magna-Porting) about 6" or so from the end of the barrel. This would vent the gas/particles at the last moment so it wouldn't have any effect on the bullet as it left the barrel. Does this gas and particles have any effect on bullet stability anyway? If so, someone would have though of this by now. (?)
