I honestly think its a combination of a few things. Trigger and rest being the biggest problem. The trigger is not horrible, but I do find it not breaking as easy as I would like it. My M700 is about the best trigger I have ever personally had. I'm gonna work on the Ruger's tonight.

I think the rest is the other culprit. I've been doing some reading, and it seems common place to hear of people having issues tightening groups with a solid "lead sled" type rest. Its superb for steady holding, which is why I got it - not because of recoil - but I think it does not allow it to recoil naturally.

I have tried to put it back into the holder the same after each shot, but who knows if something is a little different each time. I'm gonna break out the bags to do the rest of my testing.
