Yes your springs are mild as are your summers...but your winters are BRUTAL LOL...I do think your problem is the stock...and I would run a one piece scope rail if you are not already...it just eliminates one more variable...

Sounds like we will be back in Sandvika/Oslo in the fall for a few days and then upcountry to visit friends...we do educational consulting with your schools... maybe I can sneak in some hunting this time
