Do you hand load for this rifle? If so would you share your load recipe. My brother in law has the same rifle and has tried countless recipes best he can get was 1.5" group at 100 yards and even that has not been consistent. He hasnt sent it back in to be tested yet but that is beginning to look like the next step. He has tried numerous factory ammunition as well just to rule out his loads.

Thanks for all the good words everyone. Twaite09, my recipe is as follows: 155 Scenar, 46.1 Gr of Varget, CCI large rifle primer and Lapua brass. I don't have length written down; but, I believe I seated them to mag length.

Good choice.. My Bergara Mountain rifle is very accurate, pleasant to carry and shoot. I saw this a few minutes before you claimed it and almost did the same thing. I don’t know what I’d do with another 308 but I’m fairly certain if it is as agreeable as the one I have, it’d move to the front of the hunting pack pretty quick.
