[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1311933, member: 13632"] Ya, I've seen the egging of an action, it's amazing how flexable actions are really and that is one reason I got away from holding the rear bridge also, I went back on two actions I have previously carefully trued with my older jig and they were out a little when in this jig. My split sleeve is very thick so it have a lot of support on the action and it has no issues, also with the ball swivel feet so they don't bias the action, like you said even a small flat will hold things straight. I also don't touch an action now unless I can remove my mandrel and have it repeat in the tenths, found so many issues with the bushings, my buddy had one that was 6 thou out, with the solid hardened and ground rods the bolts are in the center every time!! I see it in the barrels as well and with my current set up I have to watch it a little on light barrels that I'm not forcing the bore, I'm going to build a front chuck for barrels with swivel feet and mini v blocks, my buddy build one and it's amazing how well it holds a barrel and yet puts no stress into the set up.
