"Accurizing" a new gun to shoot tighter??
I have a Remington 700 XCR in 300 WSM that I purchased last year.
What are the best ways (after-market modifications) to get it (or any rifle) to generally shoot tighter groups for a "reasonable" price? I havemodified the trigger pull so far to lighten it up from factory.
I have heard that the barrel should not be in contact with the stock at all except for basically where the screws attch it to the stock(so you can slide a dollar bill between the barrel and stock)...is this true?? (I cannot slide a dollar bill between mine.)
Would glass bedding or free-floating the barrel at a gunsmith improve shooting?? (I don't know exactly what those jobs consist of, but I've heard of people doing it).
Thanks!
