The BOSS (Ballistic Optimizing Shooting System) allows you to
fine-tune for improved accuracy by modifying the vibrations of
your rifle’s barrel using an adjustable weight system.
Every time a rifle is fired, barrel vibrations are set in motion. These
vibrations occur in all directions, even back and forth along the axis
of the barrel. Our research has confirmed that barrel vibrations are
the primary cause of inaccuracy. Barrel vibrations are influenced by
many factors such as bullet type, bullet weight, primers, powders
and barrel configurations. With the BOSS system, no longer will you
need to try a variety of ammunition to obtain acceptable accuracy.
You can quickly and easily tune your rifle to get the optimum accuracy
for all available factory loads by adjusting the BOSS system to modify
barrel vibrations.
The BOSS adjusts the timing of barrel vibrations so the bullet
consistently leaves the rifle’s muzzle at the most advantageous time.
