[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 871539, member: 12995"] I have 2 older Ruger 77's (old skeleton stock/stainless rifles) that will both put 3 in 1 ragged cloverleaf with my reloads. However, reading and listening to other people's experiences over the years this hasn't been a common thing, so I might have just gotten 2 good ones. However, I have only owned 1 rifle that I couldn't get to shoot no matter what...And that was my recently purchased R700 in .338 WinMag. It's a mid-to-late 90's rifle (serial dated), so I'm pretty sure it's just been shot alot, and/or, the harmonics of the big .338 bullets are too much for the little 24" sporter barrel (which is what I'm leaning towards), because it will shoot the cold bore shot frickin dead-nutz...But shots 2 and 3 are kinda scattered and random. It'll shoot 1 to 1½ MOA, which will still kill a deer at 300 yards, but I am not really a fan of the caliber, so it's getting converted Friday to a 7mm RemMag, with the new barrel I just bought.
