[QUOTE="trikepedaler, post: 279405, member: 17452"] I called Remington and they want me to send back the rifle. I do not mind shooting a few more brands and wight thru it but at $35 a box i do not want to waist to muck. I have some Winchester and Remington ammo on the way in a lighter weight. I do not reload. All i want to use this rifle is for hunting and unfortunately in California only the Barnes bullets are allowed so I will not shoot it to much once the rifle is sighted in. I still believe that 4 inch group is way to much for even an new barrel. I'm sending this rifle back because I'm a little worried about the carbon build up on the neck of the cartridge and also the screw holes on the rifle does not line up with the holes on the one piece scope base. My son is a cop and next time I'm going out to the range I will have him shoot it also. This way i can eliminate flinch from my part. Does anyone knows exactly what is the distance between the second and third screw hole center on a Remington short action. Remington thinks that they drilled the receiver wrong. I measured some different SA Leupold one piece scope mount and I believe i came up with something like 3.646".
