[QUOTE="jfloyd, post: 2058482, member: 73643"] I’ve got a 16 lightweight Hunter. Same basic rifle. I had a noticeable improvement by doing this test. [URL]https://www.accurateshooter.com/technical-articles/savage-action-screw-torque-tuning/[/URL] I was around 1.5-2 MOA before finding the proper torque for my rifle. Once dailed in, it is sub MOA now. Sub 3” at 300 yards anyway. No other changes were made, just shot at different torque on the rear screw. Lightweight rifles are not easy to shoot well but I find using more down pressure with my check gives the best results. I’ve heard many reports of using the off hand on top of the scope helps but I’ve never tested it. Try this test, it’s cheap and gets you more practice shooting a lightweight. Good luck!!! [/QUOTE]
