[QUOTE="the444shooter, post: 2631497, member: 46"] I believe loose action screws might be a common theme with CA guns after they've been shot. My buddy has a Ridgeline that shot lights out, and then got inconsistent--he found the action screws were loose, and tightened them up. Voila! Back to being a sub-MOA gun. I've made it a habit of checking mine on my .300 Win, but have yet to see them loosen. I don't know what the combination of factors would be that would cause that to be common on CAs, maybe it's the fact that they're so lightweight and every force is that much more violent on the components (pure speculation on my part.) As far as not shooting well, you had so many variables in your shooting combinations that you were doomed from the start. LRO gave you great advice on how to start from scratch and make sure that you had a consistent baseline to gauge your results. I'm not naive to Christensen's history, but in all of these threads (no manufacturer is immune to these dogpiles) there are plenty of instances of user-error. I'm glad you seem to be sorted out, and I hope the gun continues to shoot for you. [/QUOTE]
