[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1422435, member: 77441"] Just curious. Has anyone ever had a rifle that did not shoot in which the took the barrel off, trued the action and reinstalled the same barrel. Then documented the results to show that the variable affecting accuracy was the untrue action? Talked to a Sgt at Quantico and hey had a barrel blank that the bore was 0.030" off center from the OD of the barrel blank. He chambered it and it still shot under 1 MOA with M118. Not that this example is definative. But I do wonder how much it matters if the action is trued etc. Im sure if the action is drastically off center it could have some affect. I have no doubt that truing your action cannot hurt. But, also not sure how much it helps. I tend to think that the how true the chamber is to the axis of the bore is the most important machining step except maybe the bore itself. my 2 cents. [/QUOTE]
