What is the true benefit of a using a high quality custom action $$$ versus using a factory Remington 700 action that has been "blueprinted" by a good gunsmith to square up the barrel for perfect alignment/close tolerances.
Is it just bragging rights?
Does that tiny bit of extra close tolerance with custom high end Rem 700 like actions translate into better accuracy for a tactical rifle (non benchrest)?
I thought most important accuracy components of a tactical rifle were the following:
1. Good bedding of the stock or aluminum pillers for a free float barrel in a rigid stock.
2. Good, high quality barrel
3. Tight chamber with minimum SAAMI specs rather than loose chamber
4. Close fitting of barrel to the action with good concentricity
