[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 2270779, member: 15054"] You say you cleaned the barrel.. Did you use a copper remover..I am never surprised when someone brings a gun to me and states they just cleaned it. I run some copper bore solvent through it and WOW..not cleaned at all.. Just brushing or bore snaking a barrel does not make it clean.. My .308 was shooting a tad larger groups than normal.. maybe 40-50 rounds through it with just a bore snake cleaning every few rounds , was a while since i really cleaned it..Copper was the culprit...rough savage barrels ... And i have the 4-16x40 centerpoints on my .308 10fp and my 30-06.. tighter groups than my nikon buckmaster could muster up....Best was in the .3" for the .308 and best for the 30-06 has been in the .550" area These have been dropped from 10 feet and kicked around and stomped on..never lost zero..Maybe i got lucky ..
