[QUOTE="James Jones, post: 116016, member: 8843"] I'm prettye sure you have already done this but check your crown , a small nick in the crown will produce groups like this. And if it is a Savage , pull the barrel and borrow sombody eleses that shoots and see what happens , if it straiten's out then you klnow the problem is from a bad barrel if it presist then you know its in the action. If I had a barrel here I mail it to ya. I personaly have never seen a Savage that was this bad but thats not saying their not out their. but check you basics first , loose bases , bad scope , loose barrel , bad crown , poorly cut throat , bad scope , I got a gun back from having it rebarreld one time buy a smith thats name is common in the LR world and it would not group any better than 4" at 100yds , I had mounted a brand new out of the box Leupold scope on it so "it coulden't have been the scope" wrong the scope was bad , the smith asked me to try another so I did and the first three out of the barrel went under 1/2" with a load from the book.
