[QUOTE="Bruce A., post: 494016, member: 32880"] I have had the 8MM RM since the second year of production. I have never been happy with the accuracy of my rifle. If I waited 1/2 hr between shots it shot well enough, but two shots 30 seconds apart were sometimes 6" apart. I worked for months trying to find the accurate handload to no avail. Went through bedding several times; stocks, scopes, dampers, pressure points; nothing has given me the true 1/2 minute angle I thought possible. Last December I fired a rifle that had a Douglas Premium barrel installed. Number 7 Standard target contour, 26" long. I fired 3 shots in 90 seconds and held a nickel size group at 200 yds. My rifle left today to have the same stainless steel Premium barrel installed. I will let you know how mine develops. [/QUOTE]
