[QUOTE="Bruce Hanson, post: 9005, member: 1681"] Thanks for the ideas. I have been cleaning with Sweats, or CR10 and finishing up with JB Bore cleaner. It shot best with Blackhills match before. I have been shooting it off sandbags, and from a Hart rest. I lapped the lugs myself with 800 grit garnet. After the lug lap it still grouped Balckhills match .25 inch and brought 150 factory Federal down from 2 inches to under 1 inch. The problem was it took so much lapping that it needed headspacing. When it came back from the smith it shot 2 and 3 inch groups. After 20 rounds it shot a .25 inch group. So I didn't clean the gun and the next day 2 inch groups then back down to .25. I think I'll pull the rifle from the stock and check for something under the recoil lug etc. Thanks again for the ideas. [/QUOTE]
