Title: Are rubber vibration-dampening rings used much on big bores?

Do they improve accuracy very much, or any other benefit?

 I put one on my .177 Mrod, may have made it a bit more accurate, but it already was. I think there is more of an advantage to the FX style tuners, like Up North Airgunner developed.

Jerry,

Please consider moving this thread to the "big bore" section, as that seems to be where the OP's question would get the right exposure?   It appears in his chosen thread title
Thanks
