Bergara B-14 6.5CM in a KRG Bravo. 160 rounds through it as of today.
Long story short. Was consistently shooting 5rd groups 1/2moa or better with ELD-M 140 grain factory. Ran out of that ammo and got Federal American Eagle 120 grain TMJ because it wasn't Tree Fiddy per round. Now shooting 2 moa with both vertical and horizontal spread. 100yd indoor range. Sorry, forgot to take pics of the target. In the 10rd groups 3-4 rounds fall within 1/2 moa of POA. The others are all over the place. I've noticed that about 50% of the rounds have more resistance when chambering.
I switched from the Dead Air Keymo brake to the Bergara ST-1 brake between switching ammo but the performance was the same today with or without the brake.
Prior to today's trip I thoroughly cleaned the bore, chamber, and crown. Retorqued everything to spec. Crown looks good under magnification.
Below is a link to a video of me shooting from today's trip. Slowed down for analysis. Constructive feedback welcomed. Shooting Video
Can ammo be this bad or can my rifle not like a certain ammo this much? Are my fundamentals way off? Could it be a broken scope? Is there a way to test the scope?
