[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1000163, member: 5219"] I have never had any actions trued. I figure with CNC machining they are good enough for hunting. Now if you intend to do the 1000 BR thing I wouldn't bother with Rem or other factory action, go directly to an action like a BATT with a premium barrel. I have worked up loads for custom hunting rifles that cost $8000 to $30,000 and have made loads for factory rifles over the past 30 plus years. I have never been able to tell the difference in accuracy between those customs that were trued and the factory actions. Sure you can find the occasional bad rifle. If the rifle was sound with good bedding, a decent trigger and crown it shot under 1/2 MOA. Chamberings I have owned that were in Rem, Win, Ruger, and Mark X actions: 22-250-4 6mm rem-4 243 win-2 6mm-284-3 25-284-1 25-05 –2 257 Weatherby-2 6.5-284-1 264 win mag-2 270 win-2 270 Weatherby mag-1 7-08-2 7 x 57-1 284-5 280-1 7 rem mag-6 7mm/375 Ruger -3 7 STW-2 7 RUM-3 30 BR-2 308-3 30-06-4 30-06 AI-1 30-338-2 300 win mag-3 300 RUM-2 338-06-1 338 RCM-2 338 win mag-2 357 mag-1 358 win-1 375 taylor-2 375 H and H-1 [/QUOTE]
