[QUOTE="ICANHITHIMMAN, post: 443659, member: 10414"] Hear is a short list of things to check on your rifle to make sure its good to go for shooting. This list applys to factory or custom. You will need an inch pound torq wrench. check your action screws if your rifle is bedded or sits in a stock with an aluminum chassey torq to 60in pounds. If your stock is wood or plastic dont go past 30in pounds. Next you should check your base screws, I take mine to 30in pounds and use blue locktight. Also make sure your scope in not canted to one side or the other. You can use a torpedo level. First level the rifle accrosed the scope base then level the scope. I dont know what your scope is, but try to find a flat spot. The top of a turret works well but take the cap off. Next torq the ring bases to 30in pounds and the ring screws to 15in pounds or what ever the manufactuer suggest. This is just a check list I do to all my rifle at the beging and middle of the year and I'm sure some one will find fault with is but its just to try and help you out a bit. Also make sure your testing loads at a minimum of 200 yards from you [/QUOTE]
