Is it possible for the bore and the chamber to be non-concentric ?

[QUOTE="hemiford, post: 2895641, member: 72104"] I would think that if the barrel is centered in a lathe when the chamber is cut and reamed, then the chamber would always have to be concentric with the bore, because that is how the rifle bore itself is cut. Same with the barrel threads. The outside surface contour of the barrel also must be concentric for the same reason, although this is of somewhat less concern. I'm trying to eliminate things to worry about. If the brass or ammo is out-of-round, that can be dealt with separately and solved. I'd really like to believe that the barrel is never part of some out-of-round problem. [/QUOTE]
