Accuracy made easy, yea right!

too bad it's not a more classic design

There's a similiar unit that you can mount in your existing stock called a BugHole tuner. Some 22 rimfire shooters use it.

I don't think they will work with my Rem Model 7 and factory synthetic stock.

I've seen this type adjustment before. It does tune in the vibrations of the barrel. Yes a lot of 22 match shooters use something like it. What I have read is that you can tune it in but, if anything changes you have to retune. If you are at sea level and 100 degrees in Houston and go to 10,000 ft and 20 deg. Vibration changes. They will not get my $$$$.

I normally take guarenteed accuracy with a grain of salt, it usually has a catch clause somewhere...I have come to the conclusion good accuracy has more to do with good barrels than anything else...

Never looked at one.

I would question if the sliding tuner could move enought to make a big difference. The nodes of the harmonic vibration are actually a couple of inches apart. I doubt the tuner moves that much.

You can visualize the nodes for yourself, here is how. Hang your barreled action horizontally with some tough twine or chord. Make several "U" shapes out of wire, like hay wire, and place them on the barrel. Now tap the barrel to make it ring like a bell. You will see the wire loops migrate along the barrel to the calm places and stay there.

It seems to me that these calm spots would be be best places to put your pressure point. The deal is that they never seem to be in a place conveinant for the pressure pad.

Here is the other side of it. I don't want forend pressure on a hunting rifle. I sometimes use my sling in the field for shooting. If you have pressure on the barrel the point of impact will shift due to different sling tensions. It will certainly be different than your bench rest zero. Synthetic stocks can be more flexable than wood stocks. So the whole thing is academic. I free float my hunting rifles.
