Well I just removed the luepold scope, rings and bases. Installed a different set of luepold rings and bases these just happen to be dual dovetail. Mounted a spare Nikon on it. Same exact thing 3 shots almost in the same hole and 2 shots in the same hole 2in away. I believe I have ruled out the following. Screw torque, scope issues, copper fouling and the barrel is still free floating all the way like it's always been. The only thing lingering in the back of my mind is about a year ago I necked down about 100 RP 308 cases to 243 with one pass through a die. Cases came out pretty short "can't remember how short" but I shot and loaded them anyway until they wore out which wasn't long. Could those short cases have left a ring inside my chamber like a 22 short will do in a long rifle chamber. Looking back that's about the time this whole thing went to hell in a hand basket.
