[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 1627036, member: 94491"] To check the chamber, get a set of chamber gauges. "In spec" chamber will not close on a field gauge. How does the crown look? Paying for a 3rd party evaluation is just going to cost you $, if you already sent it back to manufacturer and they said "its good" Does the chamber leave Mark's on the brass? It may just need a light hone job. Did you buy the bolt and barrel together from same manufacture? Are you dealing with the barrel manufacture or a dealer or smith? Iirc, there were some "spec" issues with twist rates, throat/jtl inconsistencies with the val. What are your barrel specs? Have you tried factory ammo to rule out reloading practices? Have you had someone else shoot it that has proven accuracy? Is it over gassed? Over gassed will cause issues with accuracy Lots of things to figure out so we will need more info to try to troubleshoot. [/QUOTE]
