[QUOTE="Eaglet, post: 242971, member: 3756"] Here is my opinion: 1: Open the barrel channel until a sheet of paper folded in three places goes in and out real easy, you need this specially using a bipod. The dollar bill test is a waste of time. After shooting the rifle usually you're able to see where the barrel is rubbing the stock and you may have to open it a bit more. 2: You're asking too much from a magnum to group 5 rounds specially if it's hot. Many long range shooters go for 3 shot groups in their magnum rifles. If it gets real cold out side, then you may get away with it. 3: Make sure the torque in the action bolts is right. Go shoot your rifle and enjoy it! [/QUOTE]
