I went to my gun shop to buy a new a-bolt. I was told the a-bolts are being discontinued, and the shop would only carry the x-bolt. Why change a good thing? I walked out with a new Tikka.

I only shoot Browning BARs, but I would suggest changing ammo. I would definitely never buy another REM. rifle, their semi-autos are JUNK

If the bullets were tumbling and making "keyholes" as you state, how on earth were they even on paper at 300 yards?

I smell a troll.

I have an X bolt in .300 win mag and have never had an issue with it, I only shoot hand loads though. I have shot out to 400 yards and have been tickled by the groups. Sounds like you might have a bum barrel.
