The theory is the extra mass of the bull barrels make them less susceptible to overheating from shooting a bunch. An overheated barrel can cause point of impact changes. Also easier to thread the end for a muzzle break or suppressor.

If you don't need a threaded barrel and are just using the gun to shoot a few deer every year a standard barrel profile is fine.

Another thing I’ve noticed is no point of impact change with or without a suppressor on the bull barrel. Might be a fluke but I’m sure it helps make the harmonics less susceptible to small changes.

Now that I think about it, that’s probably why they put that flimsy stock on the SPS tactical I never noticed much change in accuracy when I changed the stock, it was always a tack driver, but I never liked the idea of having a stock that might contact the barrel if I supported it wrong.
