[QUOTE="JAYgs8163, post: 1994553, member: 37460"] Because the point of the OPs post is to get opinions on what is his best bang for the buck. I don’t think he’s concerned too much about a argument of what the definition of “blueprint” is. It has a definition for sure but it’s used loosely when describing action work. Here is another loose definition from NRA-SSUSA. “Blueprinting (also called trueing) can also be a cost-effective way to begin competing at precision long-range matches with a rifle you probably already have in your gun safe.” “For maximum accuracy, a barreled action should have a receiver with a bolt hole that is dead straight and centered in the receiver body. The axis of this hole becomes the reference axis with which the chamber, bore and barrel threads are perfectly aligned and to which the barrel shoulder, receiver face, locking lug seats, bolt lugs and breechface should be exactly perpendicular.” and the entire article link. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.ssusa.org/articles/2017/5/2/blueprinting-bolt-action-rifles/[/URL] I think the OP being in NZ has limited options and having his action trued and squared is his best option. If it’s Remmy he should also have the PE checked. [/QUOTE]
