[QUOTE="streetglideok, post: 501851, member: 24889"] Judging by the bullet weight, its most likely a 30 cal of some kind? '06, 308, 300 win, or 300wsm? By your comment, this gun shot good at one time but now all the sudden doesnt. That indicates a physical change has taken place. Make a list of what was done since the last time it shot good, and then go by elimination. Did you loctite the scope mounting screws? It is possible the scope is bad inside as well. Do you remove the bolt and run the cleaning rod from the breech in, or from the muzzle in? If from the muzzle, you may have damaged the crown, and that could be the whole problem. Do you run a copper removing agent thru the barrel, or just the standard solvent when you clean it? If everything checks out, I would get a boresighter(not the laser toys), and look at where the scope lines up on the grid, while at the range. REMOVE the arbor and sighter, and shoot a round, and recheck it. See if the crosshairs are maintaining their exact position. If they arent, scope mounting, or scope is the issue. More info from beginning to end would be helpful to figure out whats wrong.:D [/QUOTE]
