I don't know if a custom rig can "force" crappy ammo to do better, but it seems one goal of a custom is to have it shoot everything better than a factory rifle.



I would think a custom, well built rifle would decrease/eliminate confounding variables, such that one could actually measure just one variable: run out.

In a loose chambered, sloppy rifle, you have nothing but one big ole confounded mess all unto itself... laugh

With one like that, you can't measure much of anything, just observe... blush
