[QUOTE="fmajor, post: 1236299, member: 20646"] In my limited experience, a blue printed action can be just as accurate as a custom. In the hardware department, i believe the barrel has the greatest affect on accuracy. But like others have said, how well all the components are put together also matters significantly. All that being said, i would preface with saying "to a point". That point being up to the exceptionally powerful chamberings. A cavernous 338 bore will require much more from a receiver than say a 260 Creed or a 308 Win. It is there that a custom action is more a requirement for accuracy than what a mass-produced action can muster. To me, moving up into realm of the really big stuff requires a precision machined action that is also designed for strength. Whereas a smaller chambering can attain great accuracy without considering the greater effects of the larger case capacity/caliber chamberings. [/QUOTE]
