[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 197738, member: 2736"] Gabr13l There are a lot of good shooting Sendero,s and if you have one then stick with it. But you cant compare any factory barrel with a custom barrel just because they shoot. The factory does not take the time to make every barrel the same quality and as a result maybe 1 out of 10 will realy shoot. The custom barrel maker must make all of his barrels meet the same specs or he would not stay in buisness very long because of the expense of a custom build and the demands of the customer. Most people that buy a factory rifle (sporter) are planing on using factory ammo and are ok with 1&1/2" 100yrd groups. The people that want more accurace normaly reload and want a high end factory rifle with an accurace guarantee or at least a heavy barrel set up like the sendero. The barrel if the heart of the shooting system and no matter what you do if the barrel is not good it will never shoot as well as a realy good one!! Its easy to take a rifle that shoots 2 MOA to 1 MOA but harder to go from 1 MOA to 1/2 MOA and real hard to go from 1/2 MOA to 1/4 MOA and next to impossible to go below 1/4 MOA with a factory barreled rifle.( it can be done but not very often). I would never take a factory barrel off with out trying it first,But my expectations would not be as high as a custom barreled rifle. I hope this answers your question J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
