[QUOTE="Coues110, post: 2323005, member: 79005"] I've heard that if the action is pinched and doesn't return to battery in the stock that can cause this, but it's more of a double grouping than an odd flyer. One thing I've heard is to try is to grease the receiver and lighten the torque on the action screws. Every once in a while I get a flier like that, but maybe 1 in 12 shots and not quite so far out of the group. I wonder if I'm pulling it too and don't think so. I always check concentricity and use anything over 3 thou out to foul the barrel after cleaning. Check to see if you can fit a bullet in the neck of a fired piece of brass. It should pass easily into the neck. If not you may need to turn necks or lighten neck tension. The theory is that the neck grabs the bullet on the way out of a tight neck and throws it out of concentricity. [/QUOTE]
