[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2076586, member: 101791"] A correctly bedded rifle is very important. Changing powders, primers, bullets, cans make a big difference. Recoil could be another problem. Dry firing should be done make sure the shooter form is correct. Have a friend watch. I have been lucky most of the time in achieving good grouping rifles. I have shot rifles that never did group with what I wanted either. I had a model Ruger 77 in 22 mag, that I had to work over the stock forearm by removing out 1/8" or so. it was grouping at about 5" at 100yds, now it's down to 1". Not what I would call great, but a hell of a lot better. It changed the vertical elevation by 18". I burned somewhere around 200 rounds to achieve this. [/QUOTE]
