In gunsmithing school in the 70s we were taught to completely bed the receiver + 2" of the barrel .This for typical hunting rifles at least.
My last gun purchase was a Kimber syn/SS supposed to be free floating but wasn't .I made it free floating which dropped the groups in half ! I'll take it ! Vibration and their problems can be frustrating .A few [non-gun] problems I've dealt with defied all logic and reason! Bart , it's spelled 'metallurgy '

mete, I know how it's spelled. Sometimes my fingers don't double tap a key when they should.
And it's my opinion that several myths about firearms have been passed on to 'smith students be well meaning teachers who are ignorant of realities and ignore the facts that counter their beliefs. Last edited by Bart B.; March 22, 2014 at 09:05 PM. |
