    Try a couple of 5-shot groups at 42 and see if it repeats. If it doesn't, I'd be looking at the bedding; it shouldn't be shooting that badly, even with the worst load
    charge weight alone generally won't shrink your groups from 4" to 1"
    I suspect a giant piss take, I mean what novice pulls projectiles and weighs powder charges. The whole scenario seems like days of your lives of 1 step forward 2 steps back

    I reckon the barrel needs lapping.....
