i have had my rifle 10 years, not all rifles will shoot great further out,and it could also depend on bullet, most will shoot better,but my savage dosen't. just try backing it up a little, you might be surprised. powders can also matter,r-15 is best i have found. the load i gave is close to the M118LR, using a serria 175gr matchking.
