[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1176844, member: 10755"] Welcome to the forum, fellow Australian! This type of discrepency can be caused by many things in a rifle, bedding that's not snug, barrel not free floated, untuned load, loose scope ring bases or rings, or the forend is touching the barrel differently as the hold you are using changes and loose or, not torqued correctly, action screws. There is more, but, these are the common one's. Firstly, I would check if the barrel is touching the forend ANYWHERE, if it is, relieve it. Second, I would check the action screws that they are torqued correctly, over torqued can be as bad as not torqued tight enough. Thirdly, check the scope rings and bases for tightness. Lastly, if all this checks out OK, get the rifle glass and pillar bedded. I have NEVER seen this making a gun worse. I have one question. Have you tuned this load by altering seating depth, and how did you come to that powder charge? Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
