[QUOTE="Tnwhip, post: 1066359, member: 32195"] It can't be copper fouled. I have cleaned it really good with Butches and montanta Extream and the foam stuff, then lapped it. To see if that would help.This was just a hunting gun. After working up a load it was only taken out to shoot a few rounds through it to check the zero then hunted with it. I have all the boxes of bullets I have shot through it. 75g,87g,100g,117g. Shot the 117s and the 100gs the most. Had a good load with both. Then sometime along the way the groups just started opening up. It was never a one holer but around MOA. I have my own shooting range and a shooting shack where I can reload and shoot out the window. I spent 2 days down there last spring fooling with this rifle tring to get it to shoot better and got burnt out with it and put it back in the safe. The crown looks good. I have thought about tring another scope to see if that could be it? I may try some different primers. I think I did. Will have to check my records. I have almost every target I ever shot with it. I have had this rifle and a 308 that belongs to a friend that has made me want to pull my hair out. After a bad session with these rifles, I have to go shoot another rifle that shoots good and shoot a 1/2" group just to settle my nerves.gun):D [/QUOTE]
