    so Ive done my bit to remove ONE variable....... trying to make my reloads consistant is ANOTHER variable,trying to keep my hold on rifle the same each time ANOTHER variable over which I have some control,ensuring sight picture is same each time eg scope is centered is ANOTHER variable I have some control over.
    Looks like a good practical way of making the Zastavas group sizes smaller, via the greater consistency it now has due to your improving its bedding ? What's not to like ? If you're now running tighter groups than say 1.5moa, which I'm sure you are, then you may well have the jump on Tussocks Ruger !
