Popeye,

I have the blued/laminate in .243 and was having a terrible time with core-loct and fusion factory ammo. Groups of 2" were too common, and many times they would spread out to 5 or more inches at 100 yds. I have since purchased reloading equipment and with a little help from my friend brought the groups down to .75-1" at 100 yds. Needless to say, this is the first remington rifle that I have ever owned and I was a little disappointed. But, it introduced me into a new hobby so that's a good thing. This was purchased 2 years ago and is on the schnabel type stock.
