[QUOTE="fiftybmg, post: 1242363, member: 96316"] While you're at it, double check the free floating. With a thin barrel profile, the amount of flex may be greater than the current clearance, especially when things heat up. If the barrel is fully free floated, which a piece of paper folded in half twice will show you [ not sure how thick an index card is ], then the only thing left is the action bedding. The action needs to be stress free. If the action was bedded without relieving first, the action bedding may need to be re-done. Torque check the action screws. My 308 Norma gives me 0.5 MOA now, before action bedding then free floating it was always just over 1", consistently two together and one flyer. [/QUOTE]
