[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 685387, member: 5302"] A new rifle's poor accuracy can be caused by several things. I'm gonna get a little bold now..... Have you ever shot a rifle with a .300 Win. Mag.'s recoil into sub MOA groups at 100 yards before? If so, then your rifle or ammo probably has a problem. If not, try shooting slung up in prone with a bag under the stock toe and fore end. Most folks shoot rifles designed for firing off ones shoulder more accurate from a good prone position than holding it against their shoulder as it rests on somthing atop a bench. Or get brave like I did years ago when I couldn't shoot worth a darn from a bench and asked a friend to shoot my rifle and he did; very accurate and impressive proving to me I had a lot to learn. Was that Hart button-rifled barrel fluted before it was gundrilled, reamed, rifled and lapped? If not, then the fluting probably changed the bore and groove diameters enough at the flute ends to cause accuracy problem. Seen that happen with several button rifle barrels. [/QUOTE]
