[QUOTE="Faster Daddy!, post: 307392, member: 19653"] Thanks for the reply. The triggers were factory set at 6lbs. I have reduced those to 2.5lbs for my next trip to the range. Both barrels are free floating (checked with two pieces of typing paper slid between barrel and stock, no problem). The factory bedding job is at the recoil lug (looks good) and a small amount at the rear screw (looks like it could be better) and no bedding inbetween. I'm comfortable the scopes are mounted correctly (leuopold VX 3's). I am also comfortable with my benchrest technique. I have another Model 70 .243 (the japenese model) that will shoot lights out from the bench. However, I bedded the full action on that one many years ago. I am very into reloading and maybe I just haven't found the right loads yet (still working on that). I just wondered if there was something that I should that may not help but also wouldn't hurt (but might help a lot). [/QUOTE]
