[QUOTE="Deleted member 46119, post: 1311178"] The only issue I've had with Vanguards is copper fouling in the .243 hammer forged barrel. Not the first time I've seen that from any manufacturer. Oh, and I almost always change the trigger to a Timney set to 1 1/2lb. That said. I don't like hammer forged barrels. Too many stressed induced in the forging process. In my experience there is more "barrel walking" with heat as different parts of the barrel expand at different rates. I've never been able to "map" a hammer forged barrel POI shift with heat like I can with a drilled barrel. Some hammer forged barrels are great, some are not. The variance is too high for me to deal with. [/QUOTE]
