[QUOTE="338Shooter, post: 1315106, member: 3449"] It is adding mass to the barrel. It has mass, you're putting it on the barrel so the vibrating mass has increased. How does it intercept the vibration? Does the vibration just stop where you put the thing? Not likely. With match ammo, the muzzle is at ideally the same point when the bullet exits. This is the whole point of load development. Putting this rubber doohickey will most definitely affect barrel harmonics, but it won't correct the change in vibration caused by round to round loading differences. It just doesn't make any sense. The Boss system is exactly a tunable weight. It moved the last node fore and aft to tune the vibration at the muzzle to where it is moving as little as possible at the time the bullet exits. This is either at the top or bottom of the stoke. I will say that if you move this thing around you can get the same effect as the Boss system, but slapping one on your barrel isn't going to magically improve the shot to shot accuracy of the gun unless you get lucky. You have the same probability of negatively affecting accuracy as you do improving it. See above. [/QUOTE]
