[QUOTE="Darryle, post: 2629611, member: 109917"] Caldwell The Rock Deluxe Front Rest, Caldwell rear bag, I have not tried 5rd groups, but I will next trip to the range. Barrel is free floated to within 3/4" of the recoil lug. I loosened and torqued the action to 35in lbs front and rear, front screw first and then rear working equally between the two, didn't seem to make a difference. Always the 3rd round, with a "generous" amount of time between shots. (Subjective) Next trip, I will take this rifle and use my barrel cooler and give it 5 minutes between shots, possibly 10 minutes. Depends on how busy the range is or crowded. I see this anomaly occasionally mentioned in threads and have always wondered what caused it. This is the first rifle I have had that consistently exhibits this problem. Any other suggestions? Thanks [/QUOTE]
