[QUOTE="trueblue, post: 270978, member: 10654"] Based on what I have read on this thread has brought up a question. What would be the minimum clearance on a tight neck chamber to allow it to be used in the field as a hunting rifle ? I know some previous posts have stated not to use a tight neck chamber for a hunting rifle, but would like some opinions on where to draw the line between the benefit of a tighter chamber for accuracy, versus to tight a chamber to where it would cause trouble in the field. [B]Would .003 clearance on the brass to neck chamber be enough ? [/B]To rephrase the question, is there a happy medium between tight neck chamber for better accuracy and SAAMI spec dimensions ?
