[QUOTE="Luke learned, post: 1514377, member: 103281"] as the last poster kinda implied.....you might not know what you think you know. I bought a cheap action donor rifle (Remi 700) for some super kool tacti-build I had in my head. For giggles I decided to shoot it to see what it can do. Well, id did awesome for being a piece of crap. By piece of crap I mean, it took me all day with butches bore shine to get the copper out of the barrel. 2 shots out of it will land you the same amount of work to strip the copper again.....the barrel is beyond rough. By piece of crap I mean the action is so out of spec, the bolt face only makes contact with one half the case. Half that bolt face has virgin blueing. But......it shoots awesome for now with H1000 and 162 gr Hornady SSTs and Wolf primers. Its seated way out to get near the lands. FYI, this rifle likes to have about 6 rounds worth of fowling to be happy. Some rifles like it clean, some like it dirty. This one really likes it dirty. once I whip that barrel out its going to Hart for a new one that threaded for a brake. [/QUOTE]
