How important (or not) is it to have a Rem 700 action trued and(or?) blueprinted?

Yes it does, but it’s more like run it up to temp, let it soak at temp for a fairly long period of time, then let it cool. Not exactly your process. They say “The devil is in the details” but what do I know?

Have you ever noticed or heard of a barrel that shoots better after being shot a couple hundred times? I guess it is a mystery.
