[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1783624, member: 85987"] The epoxy method of sleeving the rear bridge tightens the tolerance with epoxy instead of steel. In a sloppy bolt/raceway, the bolt is a greater source of negative harmonics due to its movement. Sleeving the bolt or adding borden bumps reduces that by reducing the movement/vibration. If the rear bridge is epoxied then reamed instead of adding a sleeve or bumps now you have a dead material vs steel. It makes little difference till you're looking at shooting for record. Then you can see the difference in agg scores over a season. Here is a good article about some of the issues and how this action addressed it. I believe these folks are involved with D Tubb and his new rifle but I may be incorrect in that [URL]http://cstmtech.com/essay-a-better-bolt-action/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
