[QUOTE="405win, post: 471849, member: 24495"] Hi 7magweb, and welcome. There are many things that have to work to make those longrange shots. Your set-up sounds good and should work well. I'd start with the simple things first. Is your scope mounted correctly and securely? Any stock issues such as loose bolts or bedding issues? Acustocks are an improvement over the old savage stocks but check for barrel contact. How's your trigger, your form, your follow through? Trigger control is a big thing for me. These are just places to look, I'm not saying any of these are a problem. Lastly, ammo. Factory ammo is just that. Mass produced to work in all guns. They do a great job but often custom or handloaded ammo is needed to bring out the full potential of a rifle. The fact that the federal ammo shot better says your on to something. I'd start there before spending the money on barrel work, but thats me. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
