[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 672165, member: 48043"] I'm not seeing where you've tried more than one bullet. Some bullets simply don't like some barrels. The bullet is a good portion(read most) of your accuracy so you may be chasing ghosts trying only powder swaps, etc.. I'd put a sierra or berger in it if you haven't. Are you dead set on a 140? Some rifles will do better with another weight, say 129 in your case. Did the rifle have a bad day, or did you have the bad day? I've seen it where someone will set up with bad bagging or a bit of wobble in the bench and poor accuracy will happen too. A loose action screw or gummed up lock-work can kill a group. My 300 win will pitch 10 in an inch at 100 as fast as I can pull the trigger, but if the front screw migrates 1/2 turn out, it's to pot with accuracy. Check for things like this before you scrap your load work. [/QUOTE]
