Ok. Back last winter I just had to have a 300 Win Mag. So after a bunch of soul searching and fitting guns I chose a Sendero SF II. Cabelas was running what thought was a heck of a deal on scopes so I sprung for a Leupold VX6 3-18 with the CDS. I shot it this past spring and got it close at 200 yards to zero with Hornady SST 180 grain and put it back in the safe. Work got in the way all summer so Fast forward to the fall. I pulled it out a couple of weeks ago to truely start setting it up and I just can’t get the gun to group. I have been shooting off the same offbrand Lead Sled for years and is pretty steady. Trigger is crisp/almost to crisp and it goes bang as a surprise to me. So I don’t think I’m flinching. I just can’t get anything closer than 2-3” groups at 200 yards and 4-5 inch groups at 350 (the furtherest attempt thus far). I’m racking my brain as the mounts are tight and scope is locked in. Any ideas? I know I’m not shooting target loads but this is just not what I would expect out of a $2k combo. I’m probably 35-40 shots through the barrel and letting it cool down after every 3rd shot.
I was shooting an early 90s model 700 .270 and last years model Nikon Monarch 4-16 combo that would put 3 holes in a 1” circle at 200 and shoot decent groups at 400. I just wanted to try to stretch out my target distance. Thus the idea of a new gun.
