Curiosity struck  poking around the EWK site ..These barrels have a 1:12 twist and an 11 degree forceing cone.

How do these this compare to factory and if different what advantages or detriments could be expected.

Faster twist stabilizes heaver bullets, like 180 grains.

Factory is slower, 1:16. If you're shooting "dud" loads, the 1:12 won't work so good...normal or higher velocity loads are a good thing!
