[QUOTE="Hired Gun, post: 1678987, member: 1290"] I have been in the ballistic labs of a barrel makers and bullet manufacturers. Not one used a trued action. They clamp the barrels down and hand screw on the actions. The only thing an action brings to the accuracy table is a solid mount for the barrel. The bolt face is the only thing that touches a chambered round and that little 1/2" end cap would have a very hard time influencing a bullet after traveling through 24" of barrel. Guys were shooting some pretty small groups right after barrel rifling was invented. [/QUOTE]
