I have my Dad's 600. I replaced the plastic trigger guard with an aftermarket aluminum one. I free floated the barrel from 1" in front of the lug to the end of the stock, then refinished it. The stock has not been glass or pillar bedded.
I took it out today to shoot. 2 good shots and then 4" a flyer, at only 50 yards. Let it cool down for 5 minutes and repeated that performance except the ~4" flyer was on the 2nd shot instead of the third. That's a long way off when only shooting 50 yards.
What gives? Stubby free floated barrel should not be an issue.
I'm pretty sure the scope is good and the mounts/rings are on solid.
I disassembled it just now to see what I might see. Only thing I noted is that the guard screws were not hardly tight at all. Should I snug them up pretty good? Don't have a in-lb toque driver, will get one if needed.
Thanks for any help.
Glass and pillars are not out of the question if I need to have it done.
