[QUOTE="corsair4360, post: 1730341, member: 63474"] My brother has one of the Weatherby Howa's. I spent a year working on a loads for hunting elk. I got it down to 1" three shots (shooting from a bag rest at 100 yards) with the original trigger and stock, new barrel. The stock barrel channel was opened up to make it free floating in order to get down to 1". The rifle has most often made 3 shots, two almost touching and a flyer 30 different loads and bullets experiments with the original and the replacement barrel. Free floating the barrel has made the biggest change in the consistency of the groups. Next is a new stock, maybe a trigger. The experimentation continues..... I have a 338 Win Mag Browning left hand rifle original barrel that shoots better than the 7mm Mag, after freezing the BOSS system, all hand-loads. [/QUOTE]
