[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 565776, member: 5302"] This very well sums it up. Note your 416 hoochie banger's bore axis does point below the point above the designated bullet striking point when the firing pin smacks the primer, but that axis moves up as the rifle recoils while the bullet goes down the barrel. Same thing with double rifles; as the bullet goes down the left barrel's bore, that barrel's axis swings both left and up before the bullet exits. All I wanted to do was get folks to think about what really happens to the bore axis when a round's fired. [/QUOTE]
