Would expect better from a rifle that has had a chamber specifically made for that bullet. I hope with more shooting it settles down and shoots better. Attachment 69919

I haven't read the whole thread so I may have missed it. What caliber is the rifle?

And to put your mind at ease if you don't already know, proper load development can take ages depending on what your expectations are.

If it shoots close to an inch now I reckon with the right attention it will shoot better again.

I doubt they would have had the time to have tested several projectile, powder and primer combos.

I have a carbon wrapped barrel that will shoot from 1" with one load down to ridiculously small with another using the same class projectile.

It might end up like mine and only shoot 1 projectile extremely well but shoot another couple of brands adequately for hunting.

Looks to be a nice job on the barrel and I am sure you will get it shooting how you want.
