Default Long range rifle with 2.5" groups @ 100yrds

This is driving me nuts. I was out sighting in a few new rifles, along with one that I have been working on. The one giving me grief is a 300 win mag in 110ba Savage in a Stealth chassis. I am running a Nikon 1000x 4x18x50 scope on vortex rings, with a fully free floated, precision , fluted barrel. Basically set up to drive tacs. Everything new. I have been pulling 2.5"-3" groups with factory ammo. Even with my hand loads, I use with my other 300, groups about the same. I also had out my 338 Lapua getting 1" groups easy, a 223 bolt gun getting .75" and my 7mm mag getting less than an inch. I have pulled apart the 300 twice to check bases, rings, crown, etc. Everything is locktited down.
