[QUOTE="LouBoyd, post: 491061, member: 9253"] The rifle itself is just one part shooting accuracy. Long range accuracy still depends on quality ammo and a shooter who can dope wind. No rifle can be more accurate than the variable parameter which is least well corrected. Each error source increases the total error. The decrease in accuracy is related by the square root of the sum of the squares of each error source if the errors are random and uncorrelated. The point is that buying a Krieger barrel may reduce the errors caused by barrel irregularities to a negligible level, but that may not make a detectable difference if the main errors are from your ability to compensate for a variable downrange crosswinds or from vertical stringing caused by the variable velocity of poor quality ammo.
