[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 1028094, member: 313"] I think part of the issue with the Mark V rifles is the 9 locking lugs. I have been told by more than one gunsmith that it is virtually impossible to get good contact on all 9 small lugs. On the other hand, it is rather easy to acquire a high percent of contact on the two large lugs which most other rifles use. Older Mark V rifles had a reputation for a wealth of tooling marks in their bores but I really don't know about newer models. [/QUOTE]
