[QUOTE="fairchaser, post: 5109060, member: 10373"] The second target shows a consistent group. No real fliers. But the group is 3 MOA or more. You may need to try different ammo to see what the gun likes. If you have a buddy who reloads, he can help you tune a load. I think the rifle is fine. But, it wouldn’t hurt to check the screws and torque them down, especially the action screws. Go back to 100 yards and see how it groups. Then you’ll know if it shoots MOA then it’s the ammo. Give it a good cleaning but shoot a couple foulers before you make any judgment. It’s not uncommon for a rifle to shoot decent at 100 but that not hold out further. Lots of things come into play such as consistent velocities and barrel harmonics. Often a different ammo can make a big difference. [/QUOTE]
