[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 520391, member: 5302"] Don't care what type of barrel it is. They all perform the same when fit and stress relieved or not. Only difference is one shoots better groups than another. There's two other reasons why shots string horizontally. One's the shooter's trigger finger is in or out too far on the trigger lever. Not enough pushes the rifle to the left (for right hand folks) and to the right if in too far. The other's called "finger flicking." The trigger finger's not held back fully until the rifle stops moving from recoil. A natural tendancy is to flick one's finger off the trigger as soon as they feel it break and the energy from doing that gets transferred to the rifle...horizontally while the bullet's going down the barrel.
