[QUOTE="chris matthews, post: 70173, member: 66"] JD, Back to your reliabity and accuracy factor- I would not sleeve if this is a duty weapon!!!! I have built 100s of duty weapons and you know as well as I do that the average police sniper shot is around 70 yards- a 1 MOA rifle would be more than enough in that situation. Reliability is a more of a factor than trying to shave a few thou off your group size. I guarantee 1/2 MOA with my rifles and honestly 99% of them hold 1/4 MOA consistently and I do not sleeve anything. Even my two 1000yd BR rifles which hold in the .1s are not sleeved. Brent, I agree that the 3 lug design gives up a bit of surface area, but some like the 60 degree bolt throw over the 90 of a two lug.....but either one is better than the Weatherby system of 3 little bitty lugs and 6 safety lugs.LOL!!!
