[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 242939, member: 2736"] First I would try placing the stock on sand bags just in front of or on the front bedding screw every time for 5 shots and not on the tri pod. this should stop the tripod from forcing the stock into the barrel. If that fixes the problem then you need more clearance between the barrel and the stock. If none of that works shoot 3 shots and clean then shoot 5 shots and clean if there is a lot more fouling with 5 shots that could be the problem but only laping or a new custom barrel can fix a bad fouling barrel. If the barrel is a light weight conture then it may be just the heating up and to prove this shoot one round every 10 min to allow it to cool for 5 shots with out cleaning. Find and fix the problem don't treat the symptoms. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
