[QUOTE="LeddSlinger, post: 959116, member: 65338"] Did I say anything bad about factory barrels??? I don't recall "knocking" anything... Simply curious as to why a "custom rifle" had to have its barrel lapped. Actually one of the best shooting barrels I own is a stainless Remington VSSF II take off chambered for 204 ruger that I put on a trued 700 SPS action. It's not technically a custom rifle, more of a re-worked factory job, but I guarantee it will shoot as good or better than any varmint rifle anyone on this forum can muster up. Hole, in a hole, in a hole. Shoots as good as any custom I've ever built. Paid $150 for it used with 100 rounds down the tube. I can't for the life of me figure out how someone would have ever wanted to get rid of it? But it's mine now :) [/QUOTE]
