[QUOTE="Ekupp, post: 2866210, member: 104593"] I have a new 7PRC Rifle with 40 rounds of factory ammo shot through it. The rifle has shot 3/4 moa when clean but opens up and becomes erratic past 3-4 shots to at least 2 moa. There is etching in the freebore where the bullet is contacting leading in to 2/5 lands it looks like the lands are contacting prematurely. Additionally, the rifle is shooting 150 fps slower than all of the hype for this ammo, bits of powder remaining in the barrel. Has anyone seen anything like this, is the case sitting crooked in the chamber or is this chambering not concentric, bad ammo? The rifle is an off the shelf model that features a barrel by a prominent barrel company, should I engage the rifle company or the barrel company to resolve? They have both offered to look at it but not sure where to start. Your opinion/feedback will be helpful so I know what to ask for when I send this to the manufacturer.
