The 8334 barrel tapers from .760 diameter to a .720 diameter at the muzzle. The 8348 barrel is 0.860 with no taper.
The target model has a wood laminate stock vs. plastic and the accuracy should be better.

So need some help as I want to either buy the OD Green or place an order for the Target.
Can the barrel thickness set out above make a difference on a .22 when they are both hammer forged and whatever that stuff means and the same action and length.
I dont want a super bench rifle but would be good to sit on the bench and get reasonable groups but would mostly be used for hunting and plinking.
