[QUOTE="geraldhawaii, post: 2811107, member: 89185"] KH Outdoors, Thank you for the advice. Although I've had the rifle for some time, I estimate only about 300 - 350 rounds went through it. I only use it for hunting. Had good luck at the beginning on finding the load, so not very many bullets were used to develop the load. Everytime, I changed scope or remounted a scope, it would shoot 5/8 inch groups with the same load. Only tinkered with a few other bullet heads, and couldn't get the same accuracy, only 1 inch groups at 100 yards. I just shot my old loads though it yesterday, and a 3 shot group at 100 yards was 3/8 inch with a dirty barrel. Shot it after hunting the whole day, and put down 3 deer with the old loads, all one shot kills, at 60 yards, 100 yards, and 75 yards. So it can't be the rifle, just my inexperience with trying new loads. Again, I really appreciate everyone sharing their knowledge and personal experience. I usally follow manual loads, and don't deviate much from the manual. [/QUOTE]
