[QUOTE="biednick, post: 2547639, member: 123604"] Once you have a good barrel and a free float handguard, lapping the upper and bedding the barrel with loctite can help squeeze a little more accuracy out of an upper. Getting a matched bolt/barrel will help too. On the lower, a good trigger is critical followed by a comfortable stock that fits you and a grip that you can hold without wrapping your thumb around the back. The fit between the upper and lower isn't critical, but if it's too loose you might have issues building a stable shooting position. Ammo is also critical. Bulk ammo won't shoot well, you'll do much better with factory match or handloaded ammo. Of those elements, the barrel, ammo, and trigger are going to make the biggest improvement. The rest will let you squeeze a little more precision out of your rifle, but probably won't make a huge difference. [/QUOTE]
