Buddy bought a brand new BAR Longtrac in 30.06 Spr. Mounted on it a new Zeiss Conquest. Range testing has not been good. So far he has used only one ammo - Remington Express, Core-Lokt bullet, 165 gr. Not sure if they were from same lot.

All 3 shot groups are running about 6 MOA.

We checked the scope by trying out a known "good scope" and double checked scope mounting system. Same results - 6 MOA +/-.

He has bought 7 different factory ammo loads for our next trip to the range. Any more suggestions short fo tossing this rifle into the nearest riuver?

I have read about forearm locking nut torque being an issue, but have not found the recommeded torque numbers other than a 45#-65# spread.
