[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 2900901, member: 30671"] "IF" I'm reading correctly from a long ways away, the rifle shoots some loads 0.6", and some 1.5". So something works that's positive. A proper assessment of bedding difficult online. If you are concerned with cost, sometimes a cheap fix is a little forend pressure. Place strips of tape at tip of stock until contact with barrel, with the load you want to shoot. Shoot, monitor, add tape until you find a sweet spot (or not) if it gets better, add tape until it gets worse or settles. Your better grouping ammo may not like it. The best place to start is with a properly bedded action, and a free floated barrel. As noted a flimsy stock is not helpful. [/QUOTE]
