The Savage 110 FCP HS in 338LM

[purpledragon]

All the targets posted on these rifles seem to have the same results(Mine included) they throw one shot away from the others(and we all can't be doing it). Mine does it with any bullet I've loaded. I just bedded the lug yesterday(very sloppy right there), when weather permits I'm going out to see if that made a difference. Have any of you guys stopped yours from doing this?? If so, how??

No

I have a Bartlein barrel on it now but even with the original barrel I did not have that problem

Watch some of the youtube videos on the 110FCP HS 338LM. You'll see what I'm referring to.....When they show their targets.

I got the same rifle, with factory bbl, only changed the factory brake with one from Witt Machine, and it did make a difference.....

I have a 112 magnum target shooting SSTs. I don't have this issue. Mine is fully bedded from the barrel shank to the rear screw. Put a APA Gen 3 on it last winter and haven't tested it yet. Been a busy summer.

27" benchmark barrel did the trick for me, now it shoots tight groups.

I suggest that you check the torque specs on the action screws.
