        So Randall, are you saying barrel break-in procedures are unnecessary, would certainly save me sometime as i have two to shoot...

          Joust, I am real interested in the outcome here, as I am sure others are.

          Please keep us updated on what you find out, and what the shooting results are.

            such recommendations should be viewed with great skepticism. ask how "they" know it works, and watch the circular arguments fly.

              Not necessary for any regular gun. Possibly debatable tiny fraction of a percentage for some kind of competition rifle. That knowledge is above my pay grade.

                      I had the same issue with a Savage hunting rifle that came with a Nikon hunting style/reticle optic. The picatinny/Weaver base screws were loose. Didn't know why my groups were all over 'til I checked.

                      Never did re-torque it instead sold it to a buddy, with disclosure about the base.

                          I'll go one better. R700 quit grouping. Found that 3 of the 4 rail screws had snapped. Had them drilled and tapped larger.

                            When my buddies gun wouldn't shoot I pulled his scope and tightened down everything myself.
                            He started shooting the rifle again and you could visibly see the scope moving.
                            I am thinking the holes must be out of spec as too many rifles are having the same issue.
