I tend to agree with my smith that it's a barrel problem. Why? My 06 is in a B & C and yoy see how it shoot. I pulled the low shot. My benckrest 308 resides in s B & C and shoots 3/8" five shot groups. Could I hsve gotten a bad one for the SPS... sure. But neither I nor my smith believe thats the problem. We'll see what happens at the range today. If won't shoot I guess the only way to find out is to put a new barrel on it. The 06 and bench rifle are long actions so there won't be any stock swapping.
