First, the barrel manufacturing process now ensures that the outside of the barrel is perfectly concentric with the inside.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe asked our barrel manufacturer, \u2018If you could make a barrel any way you wanted, how would you do it?\u2019 Make it that way,\u201d Lundgren said.<\/p>\n<p>The face of the receiver is also manufactured to be exactly perpendicular to the centerline of the bore, and Remington engineers tweaked the angles on the rear of the bolt lugs to improve primary extraction. (Primary extraction is what happens when a bolt is raised and is especially important when extracting high-pressure cartridges like the 300 WIN Mag.)<\/p>\n<h2>SEE ALSO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/remington-pcr-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"green-comeback-remington-700-nra-2019\" title=\"Big Green Comeback?
