[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1827815, member: 13632"] Don't build a truing jig that holds the rear and the front of the action cause you'll tweak it sooooo easy and you can't really even feel it or tell, just hold the front of the receiver, then when your dialed it's nuts on because the rear of the action just follows and stays in it's natural position. Also get quality mandrels for set up, they cost but solid mandrels are the only way to fly if your serious, IMO if you don't use a hardened, ground mandrel your not going to be dead on unless something cancels out, your not going to turn something on your lathe that is the same quality that a company like JGS has to work at hitting spec with a high end grinder and a real machinist running it.
