[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1773768, member: 2736"] The only way you can get to zero runout is to try. I know that there are others like us that tries for zero perfect. and the only measure of the difference is that In my mind, good enough is not except able and nothing beats perfect. When I started doing this type of work I also found out that the closer the tolerances, the inherently more accurate and forgiven the rifle was. This applies to every aspect of building a firearm. Also by not excepting 'close' and trying to do everything as good as I possibly can, I found accuracy that was un-achievable with the equipment and procedures that I had used in the past. I used to be excited when I built a 1/4 MOA rifle, Now I am challenged to try for 1/10th MOA (Less than .099 thousandths groups. I have just added 1 more hunting rifle to my list of 4 that will consistently stay under .100 thousandths group. The best to date is .034 5 shot. Can I prove it ? all i can say is that performance has improved with every improvement in tolerance, at least for me. Whats the saying ? "It cant Hurt" J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
