[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1811523, member: 2736"] Not knocking this system, But it totally locks you in to a very few choices. There are some really good rifles that use the system that Kiwikid mentioned and the reason for them in the countries that limit the number and caliber you can own. I feel if used for these reasons, It is just another form of gun control and prices are what ever they want. In America, we not only want to make our own choices, we also want to pay what we want to pay. My problem after all of this is the ability to improve the function and accuracy with the system we have. There are many reasons to chose the type of system you want. I just think that the threaded receiver and barrel make up has many more advantages than the integral barrel locking lug system does, and you are not locked in to a few cartridges and accuracy. I have never tried to improve the accuracy on this type of action so I really cant say that It cant be done. It just doesn't Appear to lend it's self to being improved. loading the best ammo appears to be the only way to improve accuracy. I don't ever remember this set up used in the bench rest world, and we all know if it was better, they would use it. Just like bolt actions dominate the accuracy world over many other types of weapons, that perform very well for there purpose. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
