I thought it was a little longer than 3 yrs ago when there were interests in gain twist barrels. I do not recall any being advertised as left twist either, why I think these are a new breed. I'm not big on jumping on others advice either, why I said I will try one for myself and make my own assumptions.Gain twist barrels were all the rage a couple or three years ago but there are some real issues with them, namely they can tear bullets completely apart particularly at high velocities.
The gain twist will eat away much more of the outer surface of a bullet before it leaves the muzzle than a standard twist barrel will. This can seriously weaken bullets with a thin jacket.
You still shooting that Win STW I sold you many moons ago?
