I've been watching this thread closely as I have a Featherweight that's giving me fits with the 2+1 issue. A quick internet search of various shooting forums shows that this is actually a pretty common problem, but the answers all generally come back the same: something wrong with the scope, bases, rings, bedding, etc. I have run across John's (AGW) suggestion that it is a seating depth issue in only one other forum (not this one) a long time ago, and for the life of me I can't remember which one it was. But I'm going to put together some rounds and start tweaking the seating stem. If that doesn't work, I'll head in an entirely different direction.

Thanks to the two Johns, as well as the rest, for an interesting and informative thread.

"An archer sees how far he can be from a target and still hit it, a bowhunter sees how close he can get before he shoots." It is certainly easy to use that same line of thinking with firearms. -- Unknown
