[QUOTE="D in lv, post: 1634984, member: 109474"] Just went down the same road with a Winch. M70, f/w, 270 wsm. Started out at 3/4 moa new, Accuracy slipped out starting at 800-900 rounds. Unacceptable at 1200. Local smith rebarreled with a Bartlien, 24" stainless, squared action, crowned, did a little inletting and cerakote barrel and action. $1200. Not the cheapest but in the range and local. He thought it would likely do 1/4 moa. I got 1/2 moa right away with heavy loads and was pleased. Took it out to 400 yards and it still held 2" group, but horizontal, almost no verticle spread. Repeated a cue times, then took off bipod and went to a caldwell shooting bag with side support. Still 2" spread but verticle. [/QUOTE]
