Frustration has set in very deep and I am searching for answers or solutions. Maybe you guys can help?
I have a Remington 700 BDL 25-06 and it was a 1/2" to 3/4" moa shooter until I switched the wood stock out for a synthetic stock. I was trying to keep my nice stock from getting all beat up. Anyway I could not get it too shoot under 2 inch groups so I put my wood stock back on. This is when the frustation started after putting my wood stock back on it would not even group 4 inches. So im thinking ok scope must have went south. So I switched scopes and had a bedding job done.
Took it out tonight thinking I would have my 1/2 to 3/4 moa rifle back. Boy was I wrong first shot top right corner of a 11 1/2 x 7 paper second shot bottom right corner of the 11 1/2 X 7 paper. I threw the rifle in my truck and headed home scrathing my head trying figure out what is wrong.
So the only thing I have done to this rifle since it shot 1/2 to 3/4 groups was change the stock then change stock back decoppered my barrel and a bedding job.
I am using the same hand load that I shot the 1/2 to 3/4 groups with. Infact this is the only load I ever shoot. Just for the record I have shot these groups many times with this rifle.

Any ideas or suggestions welcome.
Thanks Mike
