Great write up for all the regular folks like me to understand. I often watch videos on YouTube about action truing…I could watch those lathes cut for hours if I didn’t have to get any work done.

Action Truing Ride Along

excellent pics , write-up, and description Robert. Having done that more times than I can count, the whole process takes hours and is very tedious. Lots of measuring and gauge reading to make sure you're dead nuts on perfectly.
That being said, it's amazing what technology can do. Video of a 5-axis CNC automated mill doing a complete action truing job in roughly 7 minutes.

How true are the actions on the more premium production rifles (e.g., Cooper)?

Not sure what all they did to my rifle but there was nothing I could visibly see that changed.
Gun shot good before and slightly better afterwards. Makes me wonder how much of how little they did. My barrel stamps are still in the same place. So not convinced the barrel was removed.

I have an action that i think will fall into the punt pile, but I want to re-barrel it.
Other than a paper weight, can an action that is imperfect be used or barreled with a 0.75MOA instead of a .25MOA expectation?
