I am new to this forum and new to this savage 12 LRP in 6.5 creedmoor. I am starting to love the round, just haven't started loving the groups yet. Today at the range it hit me that maybe I need to float my barrel. With a magneto speed, I shot a five shot group with an SD of 1.4 and an ES of 4. I am impressed with these numbers but shoot 1/2 MOA group. The load is 42 grains of 4350 and 16thou of the lands.

Question is: How many of you have floated a barrel on your 12 LRP or is it necessary? Should I bed the action or leave it the way it is?

I am looking forward to the answers that I get from this. Just looking for experienced people that have had a 12 LRP.
