If you like the feel of that rifle you could always have it re-barreled. Plus if you like the caliber and are already set up for it too. Just an option.
Any comments on the chamber length? Is it not odd that my OAL touches the lands .066" shorter than the MAX OAL listed? I have re-measured time and time again and I'm sure my methods are sound.
Nothing wrong with a trigger job if done correctly and bedding the action but I'm betting most of the accuracy increase will come from cleaning the Copper out of the barrel.Over all he is going to clean it, bed the action and do a trigger job on it all for $100 bucks. I'll keep you guys posted.
Three inch groups at one hundred yards and that qualifies it as a good hunting rifle? I think not. The OP is well within the bounds of reason to expect better groups than that. Who wouldn't?
