[QUOTE="royinidaho, post: 553713, member: 2011"] Here's where this thread could go drift an infinite number of directions! Lovin' it....proof is in the puddin':) A smith with the knack! Which is most probably the magic touch one has for a certain set of conditions. The Master's Touch, many have it, on different instruments. Keep in mind the shooter has to have a different "knack" to do honor to the smith's craftsmanship.:) Check this from the above post: "600 yard 20 shot group fired in a pre-'64 Win 70 action using brand new .308 Win. cases with powder charges having 3/10ths grain spread and bullet runout of 3/1000ths. It's about 2.7 inches in diameter for all 20 shots." The pic and these few words sum up the compulsive tendencies of many. $1000 dollar, 0.0005 grain accurate scales, and on and on. Regarding my "custom" rigs, its just put the load together that the smith uses for accuracy verification, sight in, develop drop chart and start harvesting. That's the value of "Custom", if the smith has the "knack". The problem is that shooting them is so euphoric I tend to wear them out.:D Great thread!!!!! Even better once you two bone heads (said respectfully) get to communicating. Won't be too long until you're sharing a beer.:) [/QUOTE]
