[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1886909, member: 10755"] I use a barrel/action shouldered setup on Win Model 70's for myself, which I limit to 3 barrels. Even with precise machining of the barrel shoulder, the POI changes between barrels, tracking zero becomes difficult after 3 barrels in my experience. I also run the same set up on Rem 700's for my comp guns, but the lugs are swapped.out for .250" thickness and are pinned to the action. Picatinny rails are mandatory for my set up and are also pinned and permanently bedded to the action. These rifles are also single shot, mags aren't allowed here in F-class. I DO NOT use a barrel vise, each barrel is 'spun' on by hand, they tighten with a snap when done with speed and never work loose. It takes a good twist to un-do them afterwards and even moreso after shooting them. Always use ant-seize on the threads and you will never have a problem. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
