[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1527367, member: 40852"] If I bought a factory gun and just used it as is, I would first try to find a load it liked. Using a Sierra Match King bullet is a good first choice to try. These bullets tend to work well and are usually easy to develop a load for. If I couldn't find a load that works, and I didn't mind the stock, I would bed the action and try load development again. I would also replace the trigger if I didn't like the original. If that doesn't help I would replace the barrel. As an example, I have a Tikka T3 Varmint model in 22-250. After load development that thing shoots 1/4 moa groups just the way it came. Many times I'll think about changing the stock but then I'll remind myself how well it shoots. [/QUOTE]
