    Your results mirror a lot of mine over the last two-three years and several rifles. May I ask what is the weight of your rifle? I'm wondering if I accidentally sold a couple of lightish rifles that were possibly "more accurate than me" and due to poor technique I never found what they were capable of . . . I have a few doubts about @gimp s "cut rifled premium quality" barrel theory as two of the most accurate rifles I've had over the years were button rifled. However both the best shooters currently on the rack are of the Gimp preference though!
