    Confused! Shooting off bipod good, off bags bad.

    Hi guys.

    I'm having a issue and hope you can help me sort it out. Had my new Remmy 700 .270 at the range today trying some different ammo for groups. I shot a 3 shot group that would have been around MOA while using a bipod and rear bag but then when I used front and rear bags it opened up to near enough 4 MOA! Then tried Federal Power Shock back on the bipod and it was back around 1.5 MOA. What could be causing this??

    For info sakes
    - Remington CDL in wooden stock
    - has been bedded with Nathan Fosters compound
    - free floated barrel (I thought!)
    - ammo used was Hornady 130g SST's

    Any advice or ideas appreciated!

    Cheers
