[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1869855, member: 87243"] I would say scope/base/mounts, check torque. 18 in-lbs is max on the vortex. That is my first thought with groups that bad. This is out in left field, but try to unscrew the barrel by hand. Went to unscrew the thread protector on a Begara HMR in 6.5 creed a few weeks ago, the the barrel started unscrewing from the receiver with about 5-10ish in-lbs!!! I would say very, very rare circumstance, but it is one more thing I will add to my checklist of things to check on a rifle before purchasing ha ha. If after a scope swap and proper torque it still does it, just contact Howa. Something is wrong with the gun. [/QUOTE]
