    now I'm getting frustrated

    Parallax. Gets me a lot. Since your shots are already all over the place. Might as well check "ALL" your screws and retorque them again (with/without loctite). I had this problem not to long ago.... with over 500 rounds through the rifle without any cleaning and such. I found 3 loose...

    Rem 700 POI shift

    I started a similar thread on another board I frequent on... and I have a handful of responses saying "shooter and parallax", but I'm still learning.. Looking forward to hearing a real solid solution to all this :)

    Suppressors AAC Adapters causing accuracy issues.

    Suppressors AAC Adapters causing accuracy issues.

    So did I for my sdn6. FUnny thing is I haven't cleaned the brakeout or the sdn6 so after shooting more than 5 rounds through it after removing and reattaching the sdn6 onto the rifle the sdn6 just don't wanna come out after a day of shooting (100 rounds or less). I probably have over 2K rounds...

    having trouble at and past 1000 yards, please help

    1400 yards is my limit with my .308 I tried a mile in two different sessions/days... Never did hit, but I can see that my hits were between 2 to 4 feet away just right of the target.. never did come any closer. Did (I think) 12 or 14 shots those days before calling it quits. This was attempted...

    shooting 308 175gr. smk's

    Maybe bring your charge down. I'm at 43.0 gr of Varget with my loads and I could group these rounds less than 1/2MOA when I do things right. GAP REM 700 22" Bartlein 11.25... I know.. I know.. but I've seen similar if not better groups with my same loads on "other" stock REM 700's. When I was up...
