I have a 308 tactical. I was using the factory hogue stock and reloading. My 300yd group was right at 3/4" with 4 shots. The last shot opened the group from 1/2" to 3/4" but I think it was my fault. So with trying to make improvements, I put a B&C tactical medalist stock on. I wanted the feature of the adjustable cheek and length of pull.
Even though it had the aluminum bedding block, I bedded the action. I noticed I went about 3" past the action. Maybe I went too far?
But now my 300yd group is 2 1/2". Very frustrated with the accuracy results. Did I screw myself or is it worth sanding some of the bedding compound so it's not touching the barrel as much? Or do you think the issue is somewhere else?
Thank you for your wise wisdom and time.
