Thread: Weathered Weatherby WSM woad devewopment

@dannyb I had the same rifle/cal as my first wsm. Bought it second hand, previous owner had sanded out the pressure pad at end of stock to float the barrel and I was getting groups like yours - 2 close and 3rd away a bit. I had it bedded and my groups became a ragged hole. Mine loved 140g nosler B/tips @3150 with 2209. I loaded them to just fit in mag box.

Mine has pressure point still, gunsmith reckons bedding will improve. Tempted to drop it back to him to bed it before progressing any farther.
