    It was actually a little worse. I was concerned I didn’t get the recoil lug seated properly so I pulled it out again. Haven’t shot it since. I’ll be shooting Monday if the winds settle down.

    Well, I pulled it apart today. Filed down the barrel channel, lightened the trigger to right at 2lbs. Put it all back together and remounted the scope. Torqued action screws to 45, and scope base and rings to dnz specs. I’ll be shooting Monday so we’ll see how it goes.

    So once again, it doesn’t consistently shoot moa. It consistently shoots just under to just over with the loads I’ve tried. I already have a lightweight 308 that shoots consistently better in its stock configuration. Plenty of people on this forum throwing up pics of sub minute groups with...

    I had less than half a box that I tried, but it was real early in life of the gun. I should probably revisit it.

    That’s definitely possible. I just used what I already had on hand, although I generally have good luck with one of the three powders I mentioned in that case capacity (sample size of three…lol)

    That’s fair, and the bolt is slick. the vertical grip should be here next week. That will certainly help with my shooting

    Well stay in touch. I’m off on weekends too, but it’s harder to get out of the house. Hopefully I’ll shoot a bird in April and be free to shoot the rest of spring. I’ve never been to Zia. Do they limit membership?
