RE: Rem 700 barrel free floating ?
IF it was mine I would shoot it with six or eight different loads, then free float it and shoot it again with the same loads. You can always put the pressure back in, and the ones Ive seen werent very uniform in the contact anyway. Many times the amount of upward pressure will be critical to getting the best accuracy. If you really want to tune it, theres no fast and easy guaranteed way. Good luck.
