[QUOTE="Freebore, post: 407504, member: 873"] texan79 I never meet a 243 that didn't put three in **** near the same hole at 100 except for one and they replaced the rifle. As other have stated check everything out, look closely at where you bearing points are on the stock, you may have a few high spots. Knock 'em down with care and reassemble or just rebed and be done with it. That off center thing is an issue. Did you just buy the stock...send it back if you did, or argue like for a replacement. The other post that said shoot a ladder test, do it if you haven't. I finally started doing this and you know what..they work. I was always one for shooting a particular bullet at a given speed due to my chart info as to what I wanted to achieve. With the ladder test I can/have eliminated alot of powders in a hurry and I can get 'er there and still have enough to load up a few boxes of rounds from the same box of bullets. 85 gr Sierra w/either IMR 4350 or H4350 and a 95gr Nosler Blistering tip w/3100. I shoot an older Sako. My favorite rifle for Texas hunting. you'll get 'er there just don't get frustrated or you need to walk away, and ask for help as you already done. This is the fun part of rifles..finding the issues and makeing them shoot...now you need another rifle as you took the fun out his one. I been having fun with guns for over 40 years. LOUBoyd I'm in Az every April can I come shooting with you and we need to use your guns..what d'ya say?! [/QUOTE]
