Ok,
so still semi fighting with this model 70 featherweight .280 remington. I fixed the crown, and got it shooting 3 shots touching out of cold barrel... however, after that, the shots walk and open up. Undoubtedly related to heat issues. is their any way to remedy this? i know the featherweight's aren't "target" rifles, but designed for one or two shots at game. I'm trying to work up handloads, and having the POI move or open up isn't helping me... waiting 10 or 20 minutes between groups of 3 is also not helping... any help would be great! Thanks.
