[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 386349, member: 23486"] Chas1, A couple facts come to mind when I analyze your question, please take them for what they area worth. 1.) An interview with Bo Clerke posted in Shooting Times (i think) a couple years back, Bo has been involved in Mil Spec barrel advancements & construction, Numerous analytical investigations & Quoted by the magazine as being on the forefront of barrel technology & development (not my words). When asked who makes the most accurate factory barrels his answer was Savage makes the most accurate factory barrels hands down. 2.) I have a Savage model 10 BVSS in 22-250, after I decided to add more zip to the old girl I had the barrel removed and rechambered in 22-243. My gunsmith who has worked with barrels from every major manufacturer you can think of called me in to pick up the completed rifle. When I arrive, he tells me he cannot believe what he found when rechambering. He stated that particular barrel was the most concentric barrel he had ever seen, it showed more concentricity than all the Krieger, Hart, Lilja, Douglas etc barrels he has ever installed. Of course making the long story short the rifle shoots ~1/4MOA, I wish I could give you the concentricity details but I'm no gunsmith & this happened a couple years ago (i've slept since then!). Obviously all run out was measured with a dial caliper... he still talks about that barrel. These are the facts I have, take them for what they are worth, just another .02 in the age old arguement. Thanks for asking, I'm going to research the Bo Clerke article & if I find it I will post a hyperlink to it for everyone to enjoy. Good shooting fellas!! [/QUOTE]
