First off I should give you a history of this rifle. It's a Rem 700 .270. I never could shoot better tha 3" @ 100 until I began to reload years ago and I was able to get it shooting about an inch fairly consistenly.
This winter I got bored and I decided to pillar and glass bed the wood stock, floated the barrel channel and lapped the lugs to tighten up the groups a little. I took care in the bedding to ensure there were no stess points. I had a layer of tape on sides bottom and front of the recoil lug.
I put her all back together and this is the way it shot.
I might add this was a new batch of reloads with my original recipe except I accidently seated the bullets too long and they are being pushed into the lands. Could that cause the stringing or is it something I did with the bedding or lapping the lugs?
I appreciate you alls advice.
Thanks,
Scott
