Brand new Savage 10ml-2. Blued with plastic stock. Purchased laminate stock from Savage and that is the stock I'm using. Have tried 40grs of AA 5744 with the short black MMP sabots and .452 250 non mag XTP's with Win 209 primers. Also tried 43grs of IMR SR4759 with the MMP HPH-12 sabots and .452 250 non mag XTP's and Win 209 primer. Scope base/rings is the one piece Deadnuts and it is tight to the reciever. Scope was a Nikon Omega 1.65x5. I am going to try another scope tonight to see if the scope failed. Group size with any load is roughly 3-4 inches at 100 yards from a bench. I know of three other Savage 10ml-2's and they all shoot roughly 1-1.25" 3 shot groups at 100 yards. Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
I should add that I've read all the info in the manual and on all the 'net forums, including this one about tips to good accuracy with the Savage. So ventliner/breechplug cleaning, stock bolt torque, waiting between shots, etc is not new info to me.
