Has anyone used these? I have seen them on some guys rifles but have never heard anyone personal experiences with them.

We had a thread somewhere about this with some great points, I think it was in Rifle hunting before we begged Brett for a shooting/reloading forum. I don't think that they make a noticable difference, but they don't hurt either.----shooter

I built a 27 ultramag and it shot 3/4-1" groups. after puting a limb saver De-resanater on it shot 5/8-1/2" groups. The only problem was then I was stuck with that birds nest on my bbl.
I couldn't stand it so I replaced the rifle.

I think the guys from Eastman's uses them. Do they melt on your barrel if it gets to hot? I have been thinking of getting one for my 300 ultra mag.

If your rifle barrel is so weak that a small rubber ring takes the whip out of it and makes it more rigid you need a new barrel.Go to a long range shooting competition and count how many are being used....0,if they increased accuracy by any amount they would use them.Eastmans would strap a dog turd to thier gun if they were being sponsored by it,they need to get sponsore by a shooting instructor,Ive never seen so many miss's on a hunting show,I dont think they can kill an antelope without missing it first.

HAHA I couldn't have said it better myself. I've never seen a sniper with a deresonator. And not just the eastmans show but a lot of hunting shows have incredible misses. I'm not an expert but I stick to the basics. Consistant hold/point of aim, breathing and trigger squeeze. When I first got my Model 700 I took the 5 different rounds I wanted to hunt with, the one with the smallest 3=shot group is what I use. Fed. Prem. 180grn partitions give a consistant 1"-1-1/2" group at 100 yards.

How do these "professional" hunters miss 75-100 yard shots from a stand? I mean they've ranged all the trees, watched the deer for 5 or 10 minutes, steady rest. It's not like they're doing a spot and stalk and have 5 seconds to make a decision and take a shot on a runner.
Just remember they call it hunting not finding. It's all about the stories.

Sorry about that I got on a bit of a rant.
