Some gun writer once compared assuming the worst with ANY rifle that quits shooting is something like assuming a pickup that won't start needs a new battery or starter motor--when the problem might very well be the cable connections to the battery need cleaning....
Of course, he made that comparison because he sometimes assumed the worst, instead of checking the simple stuff first.
Oh yes. And you have to look carefully too. But I went into that wiith my head in that warm dark place. I knew better than to think the barrel went south over night. But sometimes its easy to get off on a wild tangent when you know a rifle shoots better than that and all of a sudden it goes to hell in a hand basket. Sometimes it leaves your head behind. I was so proud of that rifle. I got it cheap and it shot so good, then whammo! Everything goes south.

What goes up must come down, what goes around comes around, there's no free lunch. Trump's comin' back, get over it!
