    The last few rifles I have developed loads for have all been custom bedded jobs or higher end very precisely finished rifles and they have been relatively easy to get shooting, I guess that kinda lulled me into a bit of complacency
    I will need to check the bedding out on both sticks and probably should've started there in reality, bedding is not a job I am comfortable doing especially with very hard to replace wood stocks so that is a factor, there is time and a considerable amount of funds, I have been quoted $350-$500 to have each of these rifles bedded (recoil lug/chamber, Tang and pillars) so if I could get away with not doing it, it would have been nice.
    I will do a swap for bedding if interested pm me
