    UPDATED....Barrel is not concentric....will it effect the accuracy potential?

    I just received my 6.5 Creedmoor barrel from the E.R. Shaw group buy put on by Gunshack. It is magnum contour and came in 24 inches. I had already decided it was going on a short barreled deer rifle, so before shooting it I took it straight to my smith to have it chopped off to 20" and recrowned. I picked it up today, and he showed me that the bore is not concentric or exactly centered in the barrel. When you look at the end of the barrel where he crowned it, the hole is obvioulsy a little bit off the center of the barrel. Anyone seen this before, and do you guys think it will make the barrel not shoot well. The gunsmith told me that it will not at all effect the accuracy, but it just seems like it would to me?
