Thread: Random innaccuracy?

THinking it was likely the recoil lug, put stock on again last night and made sure recoil lug was tight to start. Will see how it goes this weekend

I had similar concerns recently.
Gave it a quick clean with gunslick foam and it instantly tightened up again.
Had just been using inox to keep nasties away. But it appears fouling had got passed the point of being benificial.

Second this, do your usual idiot checks and a give the barrel, throat a very good scrub. carbon ring build could be a cause.

Yea I keep barrel pretty clean and did so when I refit stock yesterday so will see how we go this weekend. I expect her to be shooting tight ��

Check the scope is on tight.

As others have said I would check that it is sitting correctly in the stock / recoil lug and not over torque it when putting it back in the stock.

I also recently had an issue with a tikka 7mm rem mag after getting a supressor to replace the muzzle break that I’d been using for years.

groups went all over the show Ended up being an issue with the thread, got that sorted and it’s back to shooting great.
