Remington 700, 308 cal
Had a bit of a first time problem at the range. Shot five groups of five at 300 and they were crap. Three to four inches. This is a custom built .5 moa rifle at worst for the most part.
Noticed the bolt closed a bit easier than usual, and had 4 primer strikes that did not ignite the round. Looking at the primer strikes they appear to be light compared to the past
strikes. This was with handloads and factory ammo.
Question to those in the know, will a light primer strike affect accuracy??
Thanks
