[QUOTE="DUNEZRUNNER, post: 872319, member: 69037"] Thanks for all the replies. After I originally dropped the gun off for him to look at it, I came home and did a little research. I kind of think that the reason for some of my accuracy woes is due to me using the long 140 gr Accubond and my barrel having a 1 in 9" twist and not being able to stabilize the bullet. From what I found, to stabilize those bullets most people recommend a 1 n 8" twist barrel. On the trigger guard problem. It looks like the rear pillar might be a little long and some of the bedding compound is creating a high spot. It looks like he should have used bedding compound under the whole trigger guard to make sure it is all the same level. Thanks again for the help. Looks like I am probably going to go down and order a 338-378 Weatherby, unless there is a reason I should stay away from that gun too. Thomas [/QUOTE]
