[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 123410, member: 8843"] First thing I'd do is free float the barrel and pillar bed the action , I say pillar bed because its a wood stock thay move the most with weather changes. Second , have the trigger tuned down to a chrisp 2-4lbs with as little creep and over travel as safely possable and check the muzzel's crown for any sign of a burr. third , check and make sure that the action screws are tight and not binding on anything and check all the scope base and ring screws . Next , clean the hell outof it make sure you get down to the metal then do a proper barrel break in , this is a pretty hot round and the bullets your using have a pretty long bearing surface which makes for a gun that fouls more so them normal especialy in a factory tube.
