Benchrest shooters use big, heavy actions because they are stronger, thus holding the bolt in line with the barrel better. It also gives a stronger union at the barrel/receiver junction. Does any of this apply to ARs? Does a bigger and/or stronger receiver aid in accuracy, all other things being equal, in an AR? I know there are many other factors that aid accuracy, but let's just concentrate on the receiver. I use my rifles for hunting, and I don't want to lug around a 10# rifle. My current builds run around 8#, with scope, and get .75 MOA accuracy. So, would a heftier action increase my accuracy?
