    Na I’m not interested in speed I just want something that’ll group an inch or better to use on varmint. I’ve tried 3 different types of factory ammo and it sprays them all over the paper as well

    Sounds like something is a bit off with your rig. I would've thought at least one of the factory loads would have shot MoA.
    Is the muzzle crown undamaged, scope mounts tight, barrel free of copper fouling?

    I took it to my local gunsmith we put a bore scope down it and he re crowned it cause there was some pitting around it. Scope is brand new leupold torqued down. Given it a good clean but your right I thought it was the gun as well
