[QUOTE="7Rum Slayer, post: 2916927, member: 113894"] A very common but easy to overlook accuracy issue with the Rem 700 is having the very front base screw a tad long and making contact with the barrel tenon threads. This happened to me years ago and I was all but ready to give up on the rifle. The only real way to test this is to pop off the scope and pull the base screws and put the front screw in and tighten, if the bases moves at all when just tight you have contact and need a shorter screw. This is quite common and is worth trying. Best of luck and I hope you get this rifle shooting better. Cheers, Jason [/QUOTE]
