[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 2101287, member: 112413"] First question......I bet a gunsmith would charge you more than the thirty something that NSS sells a surfaced new barrel nut for. Second question.....I don't check accuracy difference for every small thing I do but wait as they all add up. I worry about the barrel being headspaced right, the action and bolt head being square, the action bedded around the pillars and lug, and the trigger pull light and crisp with a good bbl. crown. When I built drag cars it was those million little things all combined together that made the big difference, its the same with rifles and handloads. Attention to painstaking detail and every little improvement that you can afford to make. That said your gun is shooting very good and is at that point where it will show you what the differences you start making really do. Some call it tweaking or dialing in, I simply call it fine tuning. You know load tuning with powder-powder charge-bullet-brass-and primer all make a difference and you may find a calmer node where the load is less picky. Good Shooting with your Savage :) Dave [/QUOTE]
