[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1511547, member: 30671"] I agree free floated is where to start. Barrels come in all degrees, but some that aren't performing can be attributed to some of these cheap stocks available. Add a magnum cartridge, and a muzzle break and slow motion video, and WOW! Forces involved can test the construction of the best. Some fore end pressure is generally a patch for other issues, but can get you by when nothing else works. In the opposite direction, I have Ruger No. 1 that never shot regardless of what happened to the fore end. I sent it off to restock, thinking re-barrel when it got back. It works perfectly now, some problem in the butt stock I was unaware of resolved. Fore end pressure helped, but now free floated it's just fine. [/QUOTE]
