[QUOTE="ohiohunter, post: 1109599, member: 55230"] If you have a buyer at $400, by all means go for it, if not you may be holding that action for a while. $450 which includes a ptg bolt doesn't sound bad at all, the new bolt is a huge upgrade compared to the factory bolt. Or as pointed out you could just toss the dice and build it minus the bolt and truing. Every step beyond factory is tilting the balance in favor of your 1/2". Honestly I think if you can find a load and repeat it you should have no prob getting this. Hell I get 0.6" out of a factory RR ar15. My tikka is almost a one holer, my savage 280 is about 1/4", factory savage w/ factory stock 7mm-08 is about 1/2". etc... I think you should get what you want any route you take. If you're budget minded on this rifle I would have it trued and keep the original bolt. Maybe down the road pick up a ptg bolt. [/QUOTE]
