[QUOTE="Tnwhip, post: 1066029, member: 32195"] I have a Mod 70 Coyote in 25WSSM. Bought it new when it first came out. It use to shoot 3/4 to 1" groups for a couple of years. Now it has grown to 1 1/2 to 2" groups. I have pillow bedded it in the laminated stock. Tried different loads with everything from 75g to 117g bullets. Annealed and turned necks to clean them up. Lapped the barrel and have just about given up on it. Never shot it a hole lot. It probably only has 400 or 500 rounds through it. It should not be shot out. I like the rifle ,don't want to sell it, it's one of my best looking rilfes. The only mod 70 I have ever had. I guess I am kinda limited to what I can do with it being a WSSM. I don't guess I could get another bolt for the action and change it to something else. I am stuck with the WSSM. I am just debating on what to do. If I decide to get another barrel, stick with the 25WSSM or go to The 243WSSM, I kinda wish I could just make it a 6mm BR or Dasher. Just wishing and I have other things going right now anyway. It is funny how your mind wanders when you open and stare into the gun safe. [/QUOTE]
