[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 971299, member: 12995"] As far as accuracy goes, the barrel makes ALL the difference, with the trued and squared action being about only 25% of the equation. The heavy barrel is less susceptable to barrel whip caused by harmonics when the bullet travele down it, than a skinny barrel with less material on the sides of the barrel, which allows more expansion and heat causing it to be alot more whippy. Watch a slow-mo video of a bullet traveling down a barrel and you'll understand what I mean when I say a thicker barrel will make a difference. [/QUOTE]
