[QUOTE="idaho 6.5 x 47, post: 2278165, member: 117244"] A friend bought a cooper long range model 52 26 nosler. only have shot box and half of nosler accubond factory a129 gr because he hasn’t received his dies yet. it will shoot a couple about 1 inch at 100 yards sometimes then suddenly it will shoot two to 3 inches and usually to the right and low but not always we Changed the entire set up , different bases , rings and different scope no change 3 different rests off the bench. 2 different shooters. Proper torque on all the screws it’s free floated , stock not touching barrel. we will be working on reloading some 140 Berger’s when his dies get here. what do you guys think about this? I have 2 coopers they shoot great. could it not like the factory load that bad? i shot my 6.5-284 3 shots touching, swapped to his 26 nosler and shot 2 shots about 3 1/2 inches apart perfectly level with each other. I think that eliminated the rest. I was totally comfortable with the shots that it wasn’t me. we will be checking the seating depth with a modified case what else should we look for? I’ll post some pictures tomorrow of the groups [/QUOTE]
