1:32 is sort of an oddball twist.  You just don't hear of many barrels with that twist..........probably the reason for the question, I assume.  Most barrels today you hear about are 1:28.  Both are made for conicals and sabots.

The 1:32 twist is likely to shoot lighter bullets a little better than a 1:28 twist barrel would shoot lighter bullets........that is what I suspect the difference would be between the 1:32 and 1:28 barrels.  If you like lighter bullets, the 1:32 may be a better choice than 1:28.........

This chart is a good reference:  http://www.prbullet.com/chart.htm

Well I guess its seem I need to go shoot this boom stick alot.Thanks for all the input.Know if I could find a set of used peep sights or anything better then the stock sights cheap.being the only worker in the family its hard to spend money on things that are not a must to have(according to the wife).If anyone has a good used set please let me know.

Thanks all
