[QUOTE="Litrfoot, post: 2934936, member: 108596"] My thoughts, from the info you gave I have a few questions, does that stock have pillars installed? If not the lower torque setting is appropriate, if it does then 65lbs. Next, what trigger? If it is a stock trigger 4-6 pounds, I would say the group sizes are what I would expect, especially without a brake on that rifle. If I were going to dig into that rifle and accurize it, I would start with a good aftermarket trigger, 1.5 - 2.5 lbs. Next check your scope rings. When you set your scope down into the rings, while properly torqued onto the rail, if you feel the slightest binding, lap them! Lastly if you can, thread the muzzle and get a good brake! If you plan to just shoot factory ammo then I would look at a tuner brake! Ex. Eric Cortina’s brake comes to mind. This will allow you to tune the rifle to the factory ammo vs. tuning the ammo to the rifle via hand loading. With out a brake that is one wild horse to ride. 🙂 As it sits, 3/4 - 1” groups, to me, is what I would expect. [/QUOTE]
