[QUOTE="DocHolladay, post: 346720, member: 21965"] Here is what I would do in order.... 1. adjust the trigger down to 2.5-3lb(rem triggers are easy to adjust if you follow the online directions). If this doesnt work or you are uncomfortable doing it, buy an after market trigger. 2. start reloading 3. work on the action/stock(ie. bedding/pillar bedding, free float the bbl) 4. muzzlebreak A trigger job seems to reduce groups by at least half, on the rifles that I have done it to. I adjusted my factory trigger(rem 700) down to 3lb and started handloading for my rifle. Nothing has been done to the stock or action and I am getting .992" 5 shot groups at 100yds.... that includes a called flyer. [/QUOTE]
