    Thanks all - @Tentman - was thinking it didin't bother me that much apart from being near maxed out with windage....
    Am going down the "try straightening route" - if that fails, consideration will be given to chambering to something not already in the safe...

    Good old 788. Even when they're bent, they are still accurate. Nice.
    Ya can't park there mate.

    .243 is always worth a go, me personally would be replacing the barrel.

    I have a photo in my Mauser book of engineers at the Mauser factory straightening rifles on some sort of jig and visually "eyeing' them to be correct.
