Thread: Resurgence of interest in the old "Three Oh"?

The big issue is that they don't tend to stay accurate. The bedding is so tenuous that the "tuning" drifts over time.

In the old NRA days of .303 shooting, the guys that won invariably had clever gunsmiths that could get them into tune. These days, TR shooters can buy damn near any second hand rifle and have a good chance if their skills are up to it.
