[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1339878, member: 77441"] So this one has me perplexed. I have a savage 116 weather warrior in 300 WM. handloaded 175 barnes lrx over H4831. See dots on yellow target (holes on cardboard are diff rifles and loads) . I consistently get the rounds bouncing back and forth laterally on 3 shot groups. I let the barrel cool completely and shoot another 3 shot group. It doesn't follow a pattern of the first shot center and the next two left, they bounce back and forth. I have tried two different quality scopes. It follows this whether it has the factory accustock or another aluminum bedding block stock. I suppose it could be me, but I don't see how I could possibly be so consistent. Somewhat perplexed. Groups aren't awful, but wouldn't say they are awesome. Maybe 1.4" Orange dots are 3". Anyone experience this? I have shot it at 300 yards and they same thing happens, except the two separate groups are obviously further apart. Action screws all torqued with wheeler torque wrench.
