[QUOTE="johnnyk, post: 2306284, member: 307"] Jeremy, I know in the OP you said you had tried torque changes but I posted this in another thread on here and thought about your situation. I have another rifle that I acquired from the same fellow, it's a Savage 340 in .222 Rem. He said it would only shoot about 1.5" groups at 100yds and on it's maiden voyage at my range, sure enough he was truthful. After some tinkering and reading I found out that the rifle is sensitive to the adjustment of the barrel band which is attached to the forward action screw. With a few adjustments and after a thorough cleaning it prints .5" groups with Hornady factory 50gn V-Max. I should probably re-adjust all my rifles periodically and write it down in my shooting journal. [/QUOTE]
