Shoot it again. On a windy day Problem solved Maybe, maybe not. Maybe since it's a rem 700. My model 70's don't give a chidt if its windy.. Oh wait, was I supposed to be using wind flags??? OOPS.. Ever stretch em out to 50 yds? I stretched you wife's puzzy out that far. She kept calling me "god" too!!! Now that right there is funny!

Always shoot the donor....otherwise.....you may be making a donor out of a shooter.

Go back farther than the 10 yard line.
Camp is where you make it.

That's why I started buying actions only for rifle builds.

I knew a guy who bought a beater Remington 722 in 300 Savage and was going to use it to build a varmint rig. Until he shot it at the range and was astonished at the groups he got at 100 yards. Original owner tracked him down a couple of years later and bought it back from him.

I feel your pain - that happened to me with M70 30-06 - damn thing shot anything under a 1/2-inch - the good stuff closer to a 1/4-inch. Donors don't get shot anymore at my place. If you have a .30/06 and a pound of H 4350, just load a bunch of different weight bullets and there will be a few surprises in there. Mine loves 150gn Partitions, 168gn TTSX's and 180gn Hornady BTSP's. It likes 175gn LRX's and 200gn Partitions. When new, it shot a bunch of sub .7MOA groups using several 150gn CnC bullets.
When truth is ignored, it does not change an untruth from remaining a lie.
