So removing them would only benefit the rifle? I have seen a clip of the fired barrel flexing.The only pressure points id use would be under the chamber only. If youve ever seen a high speed video of a gun barrel being fired you would cringe at the thought of a pressure point out at the end
Dusty is spot on. Tommy McDoes free floating a stock ever cause negative effects on the accuracy of the rifle? If the rifle has the pressure points near the tip of the stock, are these points necessary?
Every rifle is different. Thin whippy barrels MAY benefit from a pressure point. I had a Ruger 77 ultralite that absolutely did NOT benefit from free floating. It was a quick project that went wrong & a longer project to put the pressure point back. YMMV.So removing them would only benefit the rifle? I have seen a clip of the fired barrel flexing.
Assuming a proper action bed, what is the purpose of a bedded chamber area?The only pressure points id use would be under the chamber only. If youve ever seen a high speed video of a gun barrel being fired you would cringe at the thought of a pressure point out at the end
Just a little relief on a heavy barrel and a magazine cutoutAssuming a proper action bed, what is the purpose of a bedded chamber area?

kind of like a tuner that you can't tune, eh? well, unless you use the '2 screw' insert method from back in the day... or adjust the receiver screw torque.Yea if you have a real flexible stock and small sporter barrel and like to use a bipod those pressure points up front can help
The wood stocked Ruger 77, 77MKII, Hawkeyes have a pressure point.
Ruger flat out says in their paperwork that removing the pressure point will remove any accuracy warranty.
