[QUOTE="aacider85, post: 612505, member: 41803"] Did you buy this rifle new? I used to work at a major outdoors store in the firearms section. We had a guy come in asking for advice because his brand new M700 in .204 Ruger (I can't remember the exact model but it had a 20" bull and B&C stock) was shooting 4-5 inch groups at 100 yards! We told him to send it back to Remington. When he received the rifle back there was a hand written note included by the Remington gunsmith that had performed the diagnostic, testing and repair outlining what he found and did to fix it. Basically, he found that the chamber and barrel were not in alignment. He rebarreled the rifle, trued the bolt, glass bedded the stock, and tweaked the trigger. Today the rifle shoots 1/4-1/2 MOA consistently. All of this was done for the price of shipping because the rifle was still under warranty. If your rifle is still new, send it to Remington before you spend a bunch of money doing things that they will do for you. [/QUOTE]
