[QUOTE="Rockfish Dave, post: 1069268, member: 14257"] I doubt the twist rates are the issue. Your 1:9.5 twist and his 1:10 twist should easily stabilize the 180's. Sounds like something else is going on. Have you checked to make sure: [LIST] [*]the barrel is floated? [*]the lug (at a minimum) is bedded [*]the action screws are torqued correctly [*]the scope rail is secure [*]the rings are torqued to the scope base [*]the scope paralax is set correctly [*]that the scope is not malfunctioning [/LIST] Those would be the first things I'd check. If those are all okay, I'd consider sending back for Savage to take a look at. [/QUOTE]
