[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1684460, member: 2736"] Just an added comment. How many of you have made a Perfect shot (Not close, but exactly where you were aiming) at any distance, and felt the pride in it. The confidence in your equipment and ammo is a big part in the decision to make the shot or not. I personally get great satisfaction from hitting exactly where I was aiming (Not close). As a smith, I understand the meaning and benefits of precision Machining so truing an action means something to me. And if I can improve the accuracy by twenty thousandths, I will because each improvement adds up the sum of accuracy. Some may not see the improvement and others don't care or need ultimate accuracy. But as a smith and a craftsman I not only want to see the improvement I need to understand the improvements and how to repeatedly achieve them. It is realy not that much cost to have a proper truing done and if it is much over 2 or 300 dollars you are being over charged. I personally will not build a rifle without truing, period !!! Truing an action is just one of many areas of improvement that add up to a very accurate rifle so doing one without the others is fruitless. Just My Opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
