[QUOTE="HarryN, post: 980007, member: 69773"] OK, I have a beginner question on this. The two competition rifles are reamed 0.005 inch different from each other - why ? Precision machining can bring part to part tolerances a lot tighter than +/- 0.002. My brother used to work at a shop that held tolerances 10X smaller, but of course they also did the work in temperature controlled rooms. There were also some interesting conversations about which oil film was on the part when it was measured and how long it was since the part had been "touched". :rolleyes: [/QUOTE]
