[QUOTE="ajstew32, post: 940594, member: 79538"] New to the forum so bare with me... I got a savage 111 in a 270 wsm a couple weeks ago because my 300 in a tc venture was about to burn out( my fault) and my 223 in an axis is putting one hole @100( can't complain with that). Was trying to find a load/ bullet combo and wasn't getting good results. so i tried factory ammunition to see what it could do with that and got at best 1" groups. then went back to the reloads with a better seating depth and the casing wouldn't fit right. Found our than my ejector is not going in flush with my bolt face and is making grooves in the based as deep as the lettering. Question 1- should I try to bed this rifle to get better accuracy? Question 2- How should i fix my ejector problem? maybe build up behind it? Question 3- should i get rid of it and try the TC in this cal? i like this cal as it is fast enough with an average bullet to put down deer out to 700(what my limit will be if i get the gun to shoot) and the recoil is like nothing. I liked the TC but i shot it too much to fast. Money is tight now also [/QUOTE]
