[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 1678362, member: 24284"] Anything would be better than that black plastic the SPS comes with. It has a pressure point near the tip of the forearm, too. Some barrels like a pressure point, some don't. I just finished removing the pressure point from a Rem 700 wood stocked 7mm Mag. It had LOTS of upward pressure on the barrel. With the sporter weight barrel on that SPS I'd be shooting 3 shot groups and letting it cool before another group. I bore scoped the 7mm Mag barrel I just floated. It has had numerous rounds thru it, I can tell by the fire cracking. But, she's still got enough rough in 'er to be a copper mine.... Some of those Remington tubes never 'break-in'. Like I stated earlier, most factory barrels aren't worth putting much time into. Especially if you're looking for 1/2" or better.. [/QUOTE]
