[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2228708, member: 108576"] I believe that too Veteran.I had the barrel replaced with a #5 contour Sheilen select 26 inch back about 2003-2004 and now shoots impressive groups and has velocities within 80 to 90 fps of the 300 win mag. My grandfather bought a Winchester 70 in 30-06 back in the 1950's and shot super groups.He got in a bind and sold it to get himself and his family out of that bind.Somewhere in the early 60's he bought another and could not get it to shoot under 2 inches at 100 yards with the same scope he had on his first winchester 70.Two different gunsmiths worked on it and never shot well.Could be a soft spot in the pour. Steels has come a long way but still suffer from high amplitudes of barrel whip except as you said the short fat barrels.I enjoy your's and other's knowledge on the subject and will keep watching this thread with interest.Have a great day Veteran [/QUOTE]
