[QUOTE="Tesoro, post: 1421797, member: 44340"] So I have a question: When a cartridge is inserted into the chamber without the bullet being jammed then it is 'loose'. Not a rat turd in a violin case but it isnt precisely form fit to the chamber. It has some headspace setback and also some clearance between the body and the chamber walls as well as in the throat. So in essence is that cartridge 'laying on the bottom' of the chamber when it chambered before firing? If so then what happens to the bullet upon firing if it isnt precisely centered with the bore?! It seems like chamber fit could have as much or more effect on accuracy as the straightness of the cartridge. I envision on firing the bullet hitting the top of the bore before straightening out.
