[QUOTE="Shiredude, post: 2748443, member: 37459"] How many rounds down this barrel? Are you the only owner? What trigger? Is it a factory job? IF not, who chambered it? There are lots of variables. Proper torque is important, but don't expect that to take a 3" group down to 1/4". Have you switched scopes and shot it? Do you know of anyone with a chassis you could screw it into and shoot it? The most important (after confirmation that scope is holding zero) is to make sure base & rings are tight with no play, same with action screws. after that, look for contact with anything in front of the lug. Crown could be jacked too. If it was me, and it wouldn't shoot after confirming the above, I wouldn't spend the money to bed it. No doubt it will help, but don't expect magic. [/QUOTE]
