[QUOTE="Darrell Holland, post: 338961, member: 7708"] Mr. Grant, No worries mate, 99% of the time a free floated bgarel shoots best. You may need to adjust a handload after having done so??? Be sure you have adequate clearance ALL around the barrel, At least .060 and seal the stock with a good spar varnish or polyurathane finish. Be sure the action screws are tightened uniformly 50-60 inch pounds of torque is fine. In my experience, barrels that have a lot of stress in them and change point of impact when they get warm may perform better if bedded to stabliize this movement. I would rather put a new tube on the gun personally. Watch for later articles on barrel lengths/contours and their performance. I think you'll be fine, develope a good load for the rifle and harvest lots of game.... Respectfully, Darrell Holland [/QUOTE]
