so I'm about 80 rounds through this MPR in 7 PRC and the thing seems to heat up after 2-3 shots with a minute or 2 gap between them. i zerod it at 200 and 2 shots at a time walked it out to 800 all good went to 1k good then 2nd shot-4 misses walked it back to 700 all misses then 1 shot at a time only to confirm 200 zero was off. re-zero'd one shot 3-500 every 100 went home.
next range outing zero was off again.... trying different ammo next range trip (going federal premium 175g eldx vs the outlander 160cx initially)

if this doesn't go well the question is am i better off punting the rifle and going with something else around the same price-point(hopefully) or finding a good smith and just re-barreling it. i love the trigger, i like the stock outside of the folding mechanism(seems like a lot of play for as tough as it is to engage and disengage) . if i went with something else i feel like id like a similar in terms of carbon barrel, trigger, folding chassis
 
Sorry should have specified vortex razor HD 6-36x56 ffp on Hawkins precision one piece mount. Everything is torques to spec and blue loctited.(except rail that was factory mounted that I didn’t check prior to mounting. but everything feels l
Solid)
