[QUOTE="leo williams, post: 1770975, member: 111903"] Shep, the harmonic stress reliever was developed inWW2, as I understand it. Applications are varied, including welding and NASCAR frames. It is a machine that induces controlled vibration into the subject piece, in this case a rifle. You can do just the barrel or the barreled action, but all loose items must be removed before starting. The item is fastened to a steel frame which is isolated on rubber pads. The harmonic vibrations are controlled at specific frequencies, for a certain time frame. These vibrations reconfigure the matrix of the steel and the result is a stress free firearm. This should be done after all machine work has been completed. With the current computerized model, a before and after print out shows the actual results. There is much more to it but I hope this helps somewhat. [/QUOTE]
