[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 555456, member: 30902"] The first thing I'd do is go back to the old scope and give it a cursory cleaning before firing. Then try some 100 and 200 yds groups with the OLD ammo. There's a very good chance something came a part/loose in the scope. .308's are well known for going many thousands of rounds before there is enough throat erosion to cause a loss of accuracy. My feeling is there's just way too much variation for it to simply be an ammo issue and throat erosion should not be a factor unless you've been running super hot loads through it for a long time.
