    The scope hold group shows the rifle can group reasonably well.

    The front rest / bag squeeze group shows variation of 6-8 moa which is not normal.

    Id suggest trying a different front rest eg bipod or softer front bag.
    Possibly the barrel is very close to the fore end somewhere and holding down on the scope makes contact more consistent.
    Can you run a piece if card right back between barrel and wood ?
    Another possibility is that a screw has bottomed out so feels tight but allows movement between shots. Could be either bedding or in the scope mounting.

    I think there will be a single problem and when you stumble across it the gun will shoot really well.
