[QUOTE=".30US, post: 1336174, member: 19108"] I'm assuming you have cleaned thoroughly with a good copper solvent, since that is what I usually check first when accuracy really drops off, assuming a quality scope isn't the culprit. But, a factory 700 in .300 RUM was the worst example of setting headspace I've ever seen. The headspace was too tight, so they pulled the barrel and peened nubs to open up the headspace: [ATTACH=full]79764[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
