Guess I should explain why the 6.23mm barrels are more accurate than tightbores - while the BB is travelling through the barrel with hop, it is essentially rolling on the top of the hop-up window. So with a larger bore, instead of the BB interacting with the bottom of the barrel during its travel, it has a chance to roll more smoothly, thus generating more consistent hop and decreasing FPS deviation.
Yes in Theory, but looks like every companies have their own thought on this subject because systema came up on their 2012 evolution with a taper inner barrel with 6.03 - 6.05 mm bore, after trying a 6.1 mm. PDI got new barrels 2 years ago with 6.05 and 6.08mm bore size pretending larger bore increases accuraccy. There is some goods reviews already on the Orga Magnus 6.23 inner barrel. I would like to see a good comparison on the best bucking/nub/hop-up/inner barrel combo with clear tests results.
