[QUOTE="cwinner, post: 801209, member: 17315"] I free floated the barrel on a per-64 featherweight Model 70 for a buddy about 15 years ago and it definitely made the situation worse.....it was a 1.5 MOA shooter before and we thought we could improve on it! After free floating it shot about 3" at best.......ended up having to put out in some wedges to put back some forend pressure to make it shoot 1.5" again. Stock rifle, wood stock, oh how much better our equipment has gotten in the past 15 years!! [/QUOTE]
