[QUOTE="Bruce Hanson, post: 9007, member: 1681"] Max you were right something was wrong. Not sure what, I did two things. First I slightly lapped the lugs again (very slight). Then I pulled the barrel and action from the stock. The first thing I noticed was a triangular hole behind the forward action screw. It was deep enough to push metal (aluminum bedding block) up around the edges, and it appeared the action was teatering on that high point. I sanded it down, and when I put the action back in the stock it looked like I had twice as much free float. Tonight I went to the range and shot a .28 inch group at 100 yards with my handloads, and with Blackhills match. [/QUOTE]
