[QUOTE="Groot, post: 2233803, member: 111981"] once I removed more of the pillar as others above suggested everything returned to function as it should. I was glad that was the issue because I was concerned that it was the bedding. I took the rifle (savage 110 7mm rem with 162 AMX and H4831) to the range yesterday (probably wasn’t the best day as it was 90+ degrees) and shot 5 different 3 shot groups and all followed the same pattern almost to a T. The first 2 shots between 1/2-3/4” and then the third shot would land high and open the group up to 1.25-1.5”. It was HOT 93 degree day and the spotter barrel heated up fast and I’d wait anywhere between 5-10 minutes between each shot. Pretty much until I could touch the barrel and then a couple more minutes later I’d shoot again. My first instinct is that there’s contact and the barrel expands and is being pushed up on. And there is contact at one point, I put bedding material for the first inch of barrel following the barrel nut. But in all the times I’ve experienced this before the contact point was further up the forend. So my question is do you guys think this the cause? [/QUOTE]
