[QUOTE="SFR292, post: 755208, member: 62002"] There's many different reasons that could cause accuracy issues with factory guns in factory configurations, and they're not true with every factory gun. The most common issue we see with accuracy issues are the crowns, either a bad factory crown (cut out of true to the bore) or user caused damage (putting the gun in the truck muzzle down on the floor for example). Stocks can cause accuracy issues, very rarely does pillar style bedding fix these problems. Pillar bedding only allows for the action and the bottom metal (or action screws in a ADL style rifle) a secure clamping force, it does not give the action and chamber area of the barrel any support. The next area is the barrel channel not being floated properly if at all. All that bedding fixes is it gives the action a solid support during recoil not to move and cause harmonics to be as similar from shot to shot as possible. The other benefit is that when the action is removed from the stock for cleaning/maintenance, the point of impact change is minimal. The biggest reason for changing a stock is the shooter's preference by in large. You as the shooter will shoot better hands down, if you're comfortable for your shooting style (wrong or right) if the stock feels good to you, it doesn't matter what I like, or Manny, Moe, or Jack likes. If you get on that weapon, and everything feels right, you're going to shoot better, period. [/QUOTE]
