[QUOTE="Bigeclipse, post: 1018732, member: 52437"] That is a long check list. I have tried different action screw torques. 50inch pounds seems to be best so far. For this rifle...I only shoot 3-4 shot groups because yes it heats up fast. I also give 3 minutes between shots to try and help with that. The groups tighten a little more if I wait 10 min between shots. Once I find a load I like I will actually shoot 2 rounds within 20 seconds of each other to further test accuracy to mimic If I needed a follow up shot out in the field. I had no idea trigger group touching stock or bolt handle touching can affect accuracy. In fact, I think every rifle I own...the bolt handle rests on the stock!?!? When you say base screws are you talking about scope bases? I honestly can say I don't know what a bad crown would look like. Yes I could identify if a crown had damage but I wouldn't know a slight imperfection that affects accuracy. [/QUOTE]
