Supersonic 0 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 I have also heard that you need to check that the barrel is not touching the stock i.e. you can slide a piece of paper between the two down the whole length. If they are touching it will disturb the resonance and effect accuracy. Nige Quote Link to post
