[QUOTE="RFtinkerer, post: 520971, member: 34460"] Does it string vertically or horizontally, or it is just random? I ask because I just got a Savage Bear Hunter in 300 WM and first trip to the range I got a 2" horizontal string. The vertical dispersion was less than an inch, so I know the rifle's better than that. In fact, I recently posted in Snipers Hide in the Basic Marksmanship forum about the horizontal stringing--if you care to, look it up there, there are some good replies. [url=http://snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=2649454#Post2649454]Horizontal Stringing - Sniper's Hide Forums[/url] Basically, get off the bipod and onto bags, work up a [U]consistent[/U] NPA and follow-through on recoil. I'm a pretty good shot with my .22, but I need to work on consistency with the heavy recoil of the 300 WM. Of course, it's that much more fun to shoot as well. :D Hopefully a deer or two won't think so this November... [/QUOTE]
