This is my first post and was looking for some help. I just purchased a .308 American Classic with stainless barrel and walnut stock. I have a Burris Fullfield II mounted with Burris signature rings. During the past week I have went through the process of barrel break-in as per Savage's instructions on their website. I have tried 5 different types of ammo and not really satisfied with my groups. My old Browning A-bolt in .270 caliber with a 4 1/2 pound trigger pull is currently outshooting my new Savage. Here is the ammo I have tried so far:
Remington core-loct 180 gr.---5" @100 yrd.
Remington core-loct 150 gr.---3"
Federal Premium 165 gr. Sierra BTSP---2"
Hornady Custom BTSP 165 gr.
Hornady Superformance SST 165 gr.---Both of the Hornady were close to 1 1/2 @100 yrds.

All loads were shot in lead sled with 0-5 mph wind. The A-bolt shot 1". I know all rifles like different loads and was wondering what to try next. I currently do not reload. Thanks for your suggestions.
