Default RE: Free Floating my Ruger

We used to free float barrels to keep the effect of the wood stock swelling from changing the point of impact, not the size of the group...

Since your rifle has a synthetic stock, you will actually probably hurt the accuracy...

I have improved accuracy on some rifles with pressure points...Simply take a 12 gauge fired shotgun shell, cut a 3/4 inch section out of it, cut in half, so you have a half moon...Loosen up the screws holding the barrel to the stock and slide this adjustable pressure point between the stock and barrel...
