[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1012164, member: 2736"] I would think that proving to the owner that the rifle will/would shoot below the accuracy guarantee at the time of acceptance would be the most a smith could guarantee because of the owners care of the rifle and there ability to shoot better than the guarantee. There are people that just cant shoot 1/4 MOA or 1/2 MOA all the time and also don't maintain the condition of the weapon for it's best performance. I have seen rifles that have never been cleaned and the owner wondered why it would not "shoot like it use to". I have also seen rifles with decades of use and thousands of rounds that still maintained it's original accuracy. If the smith guaranties an accuracy level , he must prove the firearm will do that or better. The proof that the accuracy is there meets his obligation. it is up to the owner to maintain that level through maintenance and practice. Most owners will shoot better if they know what the rifle is capable of and know they can't blame the rifle for there poor shooting. Just a question? what do you think would be reasonable time to expect a gunsmith to warranty an accuracy level, considering all of the variables that can effect accuracy ? Just my thoughts and some comments on a good question. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
