[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 901616, member: 5219"] Now that the rifle and not the load may be suspect, I might as well share with you my checklist. Check front action screw hole for epoxy Leupold windage style base windage side screws not tight Ruger rings not properly placed in intregal bases Forward screw of front base touching threads of barrel shank Recoil lug making early contact in bottom of bedding (rocking action) Action screw bottoming out in blind hole Poor crown, optimal way is to check with bore scope Action screw holes in stock too small, drill larger so sides of action screw won't touch Bolt handle touching stock Mag box must not bind Trigger group must not touch stock Trigger guard must not touch trigger Uneven bedding--- tightening one action screw to see if the action pulls up at other end. Action screws properly torqued Barrel having adequate clearance where it is supposed to be floated Clean bore Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
