[QUOTE="Fiftydriver, post: 152683, member: 10"] I have many samples of all these receivers in my shop right now. First off, let me say if the rifle is built correctly, all will produce a 1/2 moa rifle. Ranking them would go like this. #1 Borden tied for #2 Stiller and Lawton The Borden will be on par with the Nesika Bay receivers as far as bolt lockup fit to the receiver and squareness. The Stiller and Lawton receivers are a bit looser fitted and tend to be not quite as square as the Borden but still pretty good. Lawton just recently discovered a problem with the bolts they were using and now report that their receivers are as square as any out there. I have not gotten any of the new Lawtons in yet to mic however. All are a significant improvement over the Rem 700, even a trued Rem 700 because of the receiver strength they offer compared to a Rem 700. The Borden ranks higher in my opinion but is also more expensive as well so that has to be considered. Kirby Allen(50) [/QUOTE]
