[QUOTE="zfastmalibu, post: 1002072, member: 80475"] A full diameter bolt is just easier to machine. You dont have to broach or edm race ways in the action body. It wont affect accuracy. Matt is right, ignition is a huge part of accuracy. The firing pin needs to be guided the whole way, and must not rub or bind in any way. Just because it goes bang doesnt mean its ok. Other than that if the threads, lugs, bolt face, and action face are all square and parallel then it will be accurate. [/QUOTE]
