Outside 22 and 25 cal. They are LW. But what are the”proprietary barrels”? I’m feeling also LW , but with some refining. Am I wrong?
RTI proprietary barrels?
- Thread starter rangur1
- Start date
The .22, 1:32 "LR" polygonal Lothar via RTI has 6 lands and grooves.
The .22, 1:30 polygonal Lothar via Daystate/BRK has 5 lands and grooves. (Somewhat of a moving target here as Daystate/BRK barrels from LW are constantly changing).
Was told by a friend who has personally met and discussed barrels with the owner of LW that they can (and do) make anything that one of their customers (you or I or a manufacturer) wants. All it takes is money.

That's correct, no RPB barrel in .177.
.177 is a standard LW, 510mm long.
Not a bad barrel, I have 2.

I shoot 16.2 JSBs and 15.4g KOs slugs in my P-3 .177 barrel. No accuracy problems with either and the same tune works for both. It also likes Wildman 22.21 slugs, but I have to up the register a bit for over 900 fps.
