[QUOTE="RoadKill, post: 724764, member: 29136"] [FONT=Cambria]For “real” accuracy, the factory chamber more often than not just plain sucks. It will accept any ammo because it’s so lose in ID and length everybody will flop right in but not necessarily aligned centered with the bore and nowhere near in contact with the rifling.[/FONT] [FONT=Cambria] [/FONT] [FONT=Cambria]Most buy aftermarket barrels with a Bentz chamber or a chamber very similar that’s for the semi-auto a Match chamber.
