[QUOTE="zupatun, post: 127300, member: 3533"] Why not try some match grade ammo as well? See how much, if at all, your groups tighten up. If you don't reload and want accuracy, you probably should be looking at using match grade ammo, Black Hills, Federal etc...make some very accurate store-bought ammo. This will not make your rifle any more accurate, but it will reduce the variability associated with your ammo. One other thought is to try Tubbs Final Finish and reducing your trigger pull. Also proper bedding job (if not already done), is another thing you can do yourself. If you're looking at 500yds or less I think the above can be done by yourself and you'll definitely see some improvement in the range of 3/4" at 100 yds, but I'd be looking at what you get at 300yds as a better measure of improvement. Of course if you shoot bugholes at 100 that can't be all that bad... I guess it all depends on how confident you are in doing what you can by yourself first, or if you have the means to have a good smith like Sean or Kirby do the work for you. Matt [/QUOTE]
