Noted groups this past week deteriorated......hmmmm I thought.....took my 308 youth black plastic home for a look-see. Noted the scope would rock under left to right pressure......that's not good.......I knew I had been somewhat negligent in maintaining a check on the screws. Sure enough.....the provided scope mounts were both loose...yikes...took the screws out and used blue locktite....then took the 2 stock screws out....it was a little too easy....saw red locktite on them from the factory that did not effectively hold....put some blue on and hand tightened. Finally tightened my scope ring to scope screws......cleaned the barrel with copper cleaner followed by bore scrub followed by hoppes 9 ..then dry....all with cotton....no brushes.
So....hopefully my groups will tighten up again......have bought a variety of lead-free ammo (California) to try to see if the groups tighten up more......we'll see............I'll report back.
