[QUOTE="A A Ron, post: 2978362, member: 117277"] My thinking has been a lot of things, but not sure "messed up" is accurate or precise. Just in case I am messed up I will clarify. I think an honest and consistent .5 moa is very accurate and demanding of a long hunting rifle. Very few hunting rifles and shooters can honestly achieve .5 moa. Lots of people can shoot 3 round .25 moa in small samples. Putting 20 or 30 inside .5 moa in a single session without heat opening the group is what I'm referring to. Back to the point, are the best 100 shooters in F class, bench rest, long range ect.. using cut or button rifled? I don't know the answer, but I have a guess the stress from any process matters. Tikka claims their hammer forged process is the best. Is Tikkas hammer forging the same as FNs machine barrels? I doubt it. Is Seekins button rifling process the same as company x,y, or z. I doubt it? Are Seekins button rifled barrels capable of my expectations, like I have experienced with Bartlein cut rifled? [/QUOTE]
