[QUOTE="Bughole, post: 616932, member: 40718"] I work with alot of different rifles and have solved my share of problem children issues. Question 1 what are the chamberings and how are they set up. Are they match tight chambers and necks or SAAMI chambers. Who put the parts together? If you have the best parts available and chamber the barrels wrong and end up with a crooked chamber you are screwed. There are alot of good gunsmiths on this sight and there are alot of gun) machinery machinists chambering and screwing tubes on actions that have no business doing so. I'm only suspicious because your components are topflite. What kind of stocks and how are they bedded. If you have a crooked chamber and or it's setting in a v block and you are getting 1 moa at 200 you are lucky. The real customs can be just as finicky as a factory rifle as to ammo, charge weight, bullet seating depth, brass quality, I've shot alot of Kreigers, Halls, Liljas, broughtons, brux, etc. and they all have a sweet spot. It helps alot to shoot some ladders over the chrono to help you find these, and yes sometimes the most consistent chrony numbers will not be the most accurate. Good Luck and don't quit looking for your solution. If your rifles are built correctly and your components and loading techniques are golden you will find your soultion. P.S. a 1/2 minute rifle will not shoot 1 Moa capable factory ammo in to 1/2 minute no matter how much you spend unless you are just pure lucky. [/QUOTE]
