[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1177719, member: 90399"] It's like you took the words out of my mouth. Poor receiver bedding can cause havoc on group sizes. I've seen and subsequently fixed this on some of my rifles. I have kept targets from before and after receiver bedding and it has helped every time. Sometimes it has helped a little, sometimes a lot. Now a days I know if I'm buying a rifle that I will automatically do the minimal for it; 1 - Free float the barrel 2 - Bed the receiver 3 - Test reloads to find the optimal 4 - Don't go cheap on the scope rings Those 4 things have helped my accuracy every time. (Assuming we are talking full power centerfire rifle cartridges). Most factory wood stocks can be made to shoot very well. [/QUOTE]
