[QUOTE="antelopedundee, post: 1994490, member: 107384"] Years and years ago someone explained to me the process of blueprinting an engine in a car as machining all parts to the dimensions given in the "blueprints" for the various parts. That made sense to me. There is somewhere a drawing/blueprint of a Remington 700 action that shows dimensions and tolerances. Such a drawing is called a blueprint; most likely because of its blue color. I tend to be somewhat pedantic about things, so if you don't have the blueprint, how can you possibly print an action? It seems to me that truing is a better descriptor of what most folks do if they get an action that could use a little work. [/QUOTE]
