My son has a Browning A-Bolt Medallion in .338 Win Mag that has been giving us fits. First the best groups it shoots are about 4" at 100 yards. We tried Accubonds, SST's, Barnes Triple X and 250 gr. Spitzers. Different powders with different weights don't seem to help. It also shows high pressure about 10% below max and anything higher will stick the bolt and flatten or crater the primer. We tried pressure at the end of the stock as well as free floating. The bedding bolts were loosened and tightened in different patterns to see if that would help. We changed scopes with the same results. The local gunsmith check the headspace and said that it was fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Right now were going to swap it for the exact same thing and take a $150 hit on the swap. I guess it's worth it to get rid of a stinker. Thanks for the replies. PaTony
