I have two factory varmint rifles, Weatherby Super Varmint Master and Ruger 77 VT. The Ruger has a free floated barrel while the Weatherby does not; it has contact points about 2" down from the muzzle. Both rifles are neck and neck in the accuracy department, 5/8" five shot groups at 100 yds. Would the Weatherby be more accurate if it did not have the contact points and was free floated?.
thanks
