[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 369675, member: 1007"] You mentioned that you changed scope bases. Did you put a one or two piece base on it? If it is a two piece, then take off your scope and loosen the rear two screws. If you look closely, when you loosen and tighten the screws, you may see the base flex up and down to conform to the action when being tightened and raise when the pressure is released. If you can detect even the slightest movement, it is more than enough to put stress on the action and scope when the scope is tightened down to the base. When you get this stress, accuracy is impossible to attain. If that is the case, you will need to 'bed' your base for a stress free fit of the scope. [/QUOTE]
