Thread: CZ doesn't shoot as well as I'd hoped

Hi all,

I have a CZ 452 17hmr which I've had for over a year now. It groups really well at 50m, 5 shots under .5", but out too 100m on a windless day it can group under an inch but I will quite often get a flyer or two which will be way off. I've added a picture that shows the barrel not free floating.

It looks like if I try to move the barrel into the centre of the stock it looks like the whole barrelled action moves.
I really don't want to do a huge amount of modification to the stock, as it has an excellent wood grain and I don't want to cock it up.

Is my best bet to try glass bed the action in such a way that the barrel gets put into the centre of the barrel channel, or is it more likely the action screw holes aren't in the centre line and I'll have to do something with them too?
