[QUOTE="Rich Coyle, post: 1345255, member: 70559"] Two things here: Hopefully I am not asking what someone already addressed. I read the first couple pages and then skipped to the last two pages. 1. I heard salt bath nitrating can improve accuracy and velocity. Has anyone done any research into this? Is heat treating part of that process? 2. As far as precision and accuracy, I want precision more than accuracy. I once had complete confidence in a Midway barrel on a Savage I paid $130 buck. It was a .25-06 re-chambered to .257 Weatherby. I did a cold bore test by taking it to the range and firing one shot each morning for six days. The group was slightly over 1" and hit exactly where I wanted. I sold it because I finally had the money for something lighter. Now, I would like to see a hunting weight rifle of all up at 7 pounds that would be a precision / accurate rifle capable of .5 MOA. What are my chances? [/QUOTE]
