I've got a brand new howa 1500, I'm struggling to get it shooting well, it seems to be double grouping. These are handloads, bullets and cases weighed due to group wierdness.
It's sporter weight in 270, HS precision stock, torqued to 65 inch/lbs.
This is my last group of 6 rounds, bench, bipod, rear bag. 125gn VLR4 lead free. 7 power scope, which does cover thebred dot, so I'd not expect tiny groups, each of those 3 is about 1 inch, but it's about 4 inches as a 6 round group. It's random distribution, not a warming isssue.
With my heavy barrelled 308 I can routinely shoot comfortably under 0.75 moa.
I've bought some sako factory to try and will also try another scope next time.
But the question is, could the 2 groups that far apart be my shooting, I'd think no, but I'm now clutching at straws.
