[QUOTE="CRNA, post: 551737, member: 22495"] As I read your post a few questions come to mind: Was there a wind issue? Is the barrel floated? Do you have a consistent rest? I had the same issue with a .243 Rem 700. Couldn't get but about 3" groups at 100yds. I wanted to shoot the heaviest bullets I could find, so I was using the 100grs. I developed a load with 85gr. bullets to make it easier on my 9 year old, and lo and behold, she shot very very well. My first inclination would be to try a different weight bullet, but since you have done that already, I'm kinda stumped. [/QUOTE]
