Thanks for the replies. I'm actually pleased to see that 1" is about all that is expected with factory ammo, etc.

Those 1/2" groups with my old #12BVSS were hand loads worked up for that rifle.
Now I just have to decide if I want to get back into reloading to gain that extra 1/2". I haven't had a coyote complain yet about my shot placement, so it's probably not worth it. Who knows, maybe I'll get an LRP in .308 just for a range toy. (and also hire a divorce attorney)

Thanks again for the replies.
