[QUOTE="FEENIX, post: 2016038, member: 14204"] You are looking at blueprinting literally instead of the process of improving the tolerances of the bolt and action. You are correct, gunsmiths/gun builders with many years of hands-on experience do not use a blueprint (a piece of paper that provides guidance) to true up the action because they do not need it. They do however know what it takes to improve the tolerances and its end result. Look at the video link on my previous post and forget the word blueprinting for a moment and concentrate on the improvement made/tighter tolerances or end result. With your Remington 700 action example, they are built to factory spec (blueprint). So even if the gunsmiths has the factory blueprint, they know they can improve the mass produced factory machine work as noted by Kevin Cram in the video. [/QUOTE]
