Hey guys, newbie here. I have a savage 110 in syn stock in .30-06. first let me say it's recoil hit's like a freight train. Its very light and NO pad at all. Everything functions perfect though. My problem is accuracy. @ 25 yards it's dead on, just about 1" high. @ 50 it's 2-3" to the left, at 100 yards it opens to 5" to the left! Its also 4" high @100 compared to 1" @25 yards. :banghead: Just to rule me out as the error, I had my Seasoned grandfather who has bagged more Deer then I've ever seen in my life give it a run. His Gun cabinet is bigger then my house, and he can shoot. His results were right on with mine. Then we tried his handloads, same resuts as the Winchester Factory ammo I have been shooting. It just does not make sense to me. I bought this rifle based on the rave reviews the the savage 110 has. I bought it used from the original owner who was an older guy who looked like he really took care of all his firearms, so I dont think it has been abused. I own 2 other Savage rifle's in .22LR and there decent. But this one is just plain inaccurate. The trigger is great, and set to approx 2lbs. I think it may be a scope issue, but if so, why is it dean on @25? the scope is a simmons 3x9x40 cheapo, it has a nice clear pic, but its not anything fancy.
