If you do this long enough it will happen. A screw will come loose or piece break. Just last weekend my wife was shooting really well, killing a 10x10 piece of steel at 700 yards. Then she tells me she broke my gun, I look down to where she is shooting from and on the ground is the trigger shoe from my cadex trigger... Just broke... oh well at least yours didnt cost much.

Agreed, not the first mistake or mishap ive had. More frustrated I didnt catch it earlier. If I didnt need to finish breaking in the barrel I may have been more mad. Might have wasted a few bullets trying to figure out what was going on haha

I recently had a rifle that I couldn't get to shoot worth a dang. So I bought another lesser rifle in the same caliber and was going to set it up for varmints. After one last attempt to get rifle #1 to shoot I discovered the action screw were loose... I felt like an idiot. But it's all good now!

I always bed every rail to my actions. After cured, blue loctite on the rail screws.

Glad you found the issue.

PS: if that was a EGW rail, keep an eye on it for a re-occurrence.

@Broz
Had the same kinda issue this morning with my setup.
Switched back to the 210 Vld because my rifle shoots them better. Re zeroed & chrono.
@ 4.25 yard it called for .5 moa too much.
Had to speed the up the fps in the app by 73 to get it to match.
Got to hot to shoot any other ranges.
Only thing I can think is my chrono is off.
I'm just using one of the $99 Caldwells.

It’s easy to have “slow” readings with an optical chrono. A 10* tilt in setup could account for ~70 FPS. Depending on distance from muzzle, velocity degradation could account for 5 - 10 fps.

Always calibrate velocity based on real world drops regardless of what type of chrono you use.

Copy that,
Thank you
