[QUOTE="ourway77, post: 389739, member: 6100"] First of all make sure all screws on the scope are tight. I use hanger bars on all the Ecores and Contender, some people perfer other means to keep the barrel and wood consistent each time you fire the rifle. If and when you get a new barrel the load in it may be the culpret. Ofcourse if all you only use factory ammo you are really limited to various brands. I haven't shot a factory load in 50 years or so. A quality barrel is another plus and a big one OTT, MGM Bullberry and some others fit the bill. Had a friend who bought a 7MM Mag barrel he started with factory ammo, he was about to throw it over the hill. I said don't count it out, so I loaded some bullets for him. He shot the 7MM and his eyes got big as sausers, he couldn't belive it. He shot a very impressive group and he became a happy camper. I recently sold all my Encore and Contender rifles. Now I shoot nothing but bolt actions rifles. But I will never sell all my Encore and Contender pistols. Don't give up on a barrel til you have exauted everything. Good Luck lou [/QUOTE]
