Default RE: darn mountain rifle gave me a scare!

No clue! Right now i am doing my best to control my temper with this rifle right now

Cleaned the rifle, adjuste the sights (almost perfect BTW) and i take 3 loads out to 100 yards, First shot nails the bulls eye 1" above POA and 2" to the right. Next shot, 8" to the right 3rd shot, 8" low of the 1st shot! Almost like a damn triangle shape.

Run back and grab 3 loaders again but with 70gr RS. This load will normally place the first 2 shots touching and the 3rd an inch low.

Not this time! I bet you can guess what this group shot!!



8" again!

I am taking the rifle apart now and going to inspect it really good because i havent a clue as how in the heck it can go from shooting under 2" groups, to where it is now!

Cant be shooter error as i shot 2 groups they shot the same group of 8"

I have some .020 patches i can try but thats going to be a real mess trying to get down! Also have some .018 pillow ticking.


Any ideas guys?
