The barrel is locked to the slide at both ends, and the sights are mounted on the slide, so the fit of the barrel to the slide is the most important for accuracy
I dont know why. But I never actually considered that. It is good news for my Llama. While I was trying to fit the Kimber barrel (which doesnt because the Kimber is ramped) i found out that the bushing has about .025 gap all the way around the barrel. At this point I am going to try and find a bushing that will fit or machined undersize on the bore. If I tighten that up to .005 or less I might have something that is accurate enough to make it fun to shoot.I havent miced the barrel yet, but it does not appear to have any relief behind the bushing. How tight can I make the bushing? Should I put .002 -.005 relief in the barrel?
