[QUOTE="gunners, post: 1091840, member: 77186"] I've got a Ruger 338 Win mag in stainless laminate that loves Hornady 200 gr superformance which will shoot about a 1 inch group at 200 yards with it and only it. Everything else is sort of 1.5-2.5" at 100, including handoads using Hornady and Nosler 200gr and 225 gr bullets, Re19 and H4831 powders have been tried. You might also try cranking a little pressure on the front action screw with a little bit of packing in the forend tip, that worked for my Ruger 7 RM. Sometimes Ruger's like a bit of pressure on the fore end. Some people find free floating a Ruger can make things worse, other times it works like a charm, they can be a bit finicky to say the least. I've sort of given up on mine it's in a shop for sale, just don't have the time to muck round with it anymore. The amount money it would cost to continue load development when Hornady shoots so good is prohibitive for the couple of times a year I take it out [/QUOTE]
