just out of interest, is there any way of improving the accuracy except the barrel?
Paint to barrel match (I know you said, "other than the barrel", but a good multi-bore system, so you can match your paint to your barrel, would really make a world of difference), a good reg (Sidewinder and CP come highly recommended), and an air system (you can't afford NOT to have air, a cheap system only costs around $80 these days, and would vastly improve your consistency, and thus your perceived accuracy) would help immensely. Air is infinitely better than Co2, especially on an electropneumatic like the Bushmaster. A new high flow bolt might be good too.
