[QUOTE="minute of elk, post: 857960, member: 44031"] if it were me, i'd start at the start. 1) pull it out of the stock & check the bedding area, lug, etc 2) tighten everything (torque wrench is mandatory for me on action bolts, base screws, and scope rings) 3) dry fire a bunch to make sure i'm liking the trigger, while i- 4) make sure the bolt closes securely & operates smoothly if it feels & operates correctly after this, 5) bore sight it again at 25-50 yards. 6) put a few through the 22 before i shot for groups- just to make sure i'm not flinching 7) take my time & focus on the basics when shooting it 8) run a box test on the scope to make sure it's not the problem 9) shoot a video of me shooting if i was still unsure whether or not it was me and if all that didn't help- 10) take it to Glen [/QUOTE]
