Blueprinting is the process of re-cutting all critical surfaces of a firearm's action to tighter tolerances than the original. Larry Potterfield, CEO and Founder of MidwayUSA, demonstrates this process using basic equipment and a Remington model 700 action.

  • I own a Rem SPS tactical. I handload and the only mod is a Timney trigger. With a Leu. 4.5x14 and my Lapua or Sierra MK loads it will shoot one ragged hole at a hundred easily. I would love to do this to my rifle, but I don't think I could do my part to see a diff. in accuarcy. It is already more accurate than I can shoot.

  • @MidwayUSA larry can you please refer me to a good gunsmithing school?

  • @XHustonProductionsX not true, and machine can be improved on with blueprinting

  • All about the tools :)

  • @MidwayUSA could i have a copy of the email, ive been very interested.. im a welder and metal worker and i love and enjoy guns and this has been something thats been on my mind.

  • Larry I just placed my 5th order with you today, I just wanted to say thanks for the awesome products and good prices, your company has always been good to me. I was looking through the catalog last night and I saw a Picture of you and your wife. It made me proud to see two white americans that own such a great buisness. Thank you and God bless the USA!!!

  • the utmost inaccuracy... yup thats what he said

  • Truing doesn't improve accuracy as much as it increases consistency, which is the main goal. Your barrel/trigger and form will be the most important part in accuracy.

  • @MidwayUSA Hello there, can I get the same message sent to my inbox as well please?

  • @2253glen well, I think Travis Haley said something about you're the only thing limiting yourself if you think like that

  • When hunting African game on a hunt of a lifetime, I would never employ the use of a PUSH FEED action like the Remington 700.

    Mauser style CONTROLLED FEED actions such as the Winchester 70, Ruger 77, Interarms, Charles Daly, Springfield '03 A3, etc. are much more reliable.
