[QUOTE="21buck, post: 511683, member: 12241"] JECustom, Trickymissfit, rscott5028, I appreciate the great effort it took to write up these explanations. I always wondered how can we shoot straight if we don't know that the barrel is straight. I know a lot more than I did before your assistance. However, I still have the basic question: How to straighten a barrel? A good example a friend has a barrel that is concentric on the external but has shadows within the length of the bore? JE Custom recommended that a barrel out of spec be returned. I just don't know if it is out of spec. Quandary : Ask the manufacturer to stand behind his work? or go thru the work of chambering and fitting, and acutal firing to tell the manufacturer that his product is questionable and we want it replaced with one of quality? My diplomacy is not the best but the manufacturer is the responsible party at this point. We cannot afford to reinvent the straighting process. Please advise. Thanks for all your help so far. Have a great Holiday. [/QUOTE]
