    Concentricity?

    Why does a bullet have to be concentric with a case and the chamber and the bore? Or; why does a straight bore that a bullet fits properly into need the bullet and case to be concentric with the bore with little or no runout for accuracy?

    good day on the range for a newbie with a new rifle.

    A couple of years ago my brother Robert in Colorado gave my an AR kit, had everything but a lower. I bought two lowers and put the gun he gave me together. I liked it so much I built another one, but for shooting squirrels. With a 24' heavy barrel I am able to shoot six round 1/2 inch groups...
