Others have offered some very good tips here for obtaining accuracy. I will offer two more. #1 is alot of trigger time. I've found that the more one shoots using good techniques, the more accurate shooter one becomes. #2, recently a friend brought his 25-06 model 70 Winchester to me. He'd had for the better part of thirty years and always took very good care of it and faithfully maintained the barrel using Hoppes #9. The last couple of years though, its accuracy was getting very bad, akin to a shotgun patterern. So he thought maybe it was time for a new barrel. I looked at it and decided I'd try a good cleaning first. I Spent two days on it removing carbon and copper fouling. We took it to the range to try it out. His first hundred yard test resulted in a half inch group. The second group was also a half inch. I offered him $50 buck for that terrible shooting rifle. He only laughed. Bottom line, good barrel maintenance will also go along ways towards good accuracy. Goodluck with your Remy.
