[QUOTE="NesikaChad, post: 339372, member: 7449"] Pretty much what JE said. It is largely application specific. a rifle that will only be fed carefully hand tailored ammunition can be chambered on the conservative side because of this. A working field gun that will be fed what ever the sporting goods store has on the shelf that weekend will typically get loosened up some. Same thing with breech clearances. Rifles that see a sterile environment can run tighter. Do that with a sniper rifle and it's possible the owner may go home in a bag because his rifle locked up tight on him. [/QUOTE]
