1 MOA to .5 MOA with just glass bedding?

[Moadster]

FN claims that the only difference between the FN SPR A3G that they supply to the FBI and all the other FN SPR's is that they fully marine tex bed the actions in the stock, and the resultant accuracy jumps from under 1.0 MOA to under 0.5 MOA...believable?

If they run better than 1moa unbedded it is not unexpected that they would tighten up bedded.

Im not an expert but alot of guys say it makes a big diff. I may be wrong but going from 1 moa to .5 is achievable cause theres alot of accuracy to be gained from a 1moa gun. now if they said .5 to .2 just from bedding I would be skeptical

I really think it is more of a guarantee thing. Sure, an unbedded rifle could shoot lights out, but it may only shoot 1 MOA. I believe the A3G is bedded by GAP...or at least they were. If that is so, no reason not to guarantee .5 MOA.

Well my rifle came from the factory .8 MOA and has stayed between .6 and 1.0 since then. I guess I will bed it and see what happens!
