Accurizing a bolt action rifle...

[deaddog]

And please keep in mind that free floatings is not a fix all nor is it recomended for every gun. Most thin profile barrels shoot better with some pressure on the barrle at the forend, I see some that dont shoot well until 8-10 lbs pressure is achived.

I agree.  Turned mine from medeocre to awsome.  I kept the same factory wood stock, bbl & trigger group.  Just bedded the action and floated the barrel.  Drives nails year after year.  That and finding the right bullet.  Mine (6mm) loves Sierra 100gr BT.  Won't shoot flat base as well.
