Thread: 303 group-bad bedding?

@Moa Hunter cheers for the advice-that's along the lines of what I was thinking but you aren't seeing any bedding-there isn't any.
As posted I was trying to cheat and see if it shot reasonably before I bedded it. barrel a bit naff so if it needed replacing I didn't want to do it twice.
looks like I have to do it to prove otherwise.
All good and I need the practice and hey it might still be good. I'm not looking for a target rifle. If it can do close to 2" groups at 100m ill be ecstatic. Any more than that and I will put it under consideration as to how bad
And I cant see hundreds of rounds going down range anytime soon. If it shoots good it will probably last me out.
