Yeah my intention is if this were to correct the problem would be to remove all the shims and sand the stock down to the point where it's floated. This is just an attempt to figure out what is going on. I'd like to shoot no more than 6 shots on Saturday with the shims in. Three at 50 and three at 100.

I would never go as far as to say that I'm an expert shot but I'm pretty good. I can pull off 5/8" groups at 100 yards with my 300 Win Mag and I have a .308 that I can shoot a ragged hole at 50 yards for a 5 shot group. I typically go to the range every weekend even when it's relatively cold out. So I don't believe it's the Indian in this case.

I will report back on Saturday.
