The rational behind the pressure point is the frequency control it produces. Barrels vibrate like tuning forks when they are fired. The pressure point raises the frequency and thus lowers the normal group size.. the real value of a free floating barrel is it's not being affected by the movement of t...

The 722 and the short action M700 where the 6mmRem is usually found are the same basic action. The 6mm and 244 were both chambered in pump rifles and likely the autos also..but I'm not sure.
