JamesJr I have tried many different bullets, hand loads and factory. The 70gr Speer just showed the most promise of them all. The Federal Fusion Factory ammo did ok also.
Scope is a brand new Leupold. Guess it could be an issue??
Might try the tupper ware stock and shimming.
Yes if I take it to the Smith, I will have him check the crown.

I once had a Howa 6.5X55 that I could not get to shoot as I wanted it o, despite trying a bunch of different loads. As a last resort, I called the company, and they said send it back and they would replace it. They did, and the new rifle shot better, though not tack driving material by any means. Which leads me to say that it certainly is possible you have a rifle that just may not shoot as well as you want, no matter what you do.
