DPMS LR-308 GII 24"Bull

[Moose16]

I have a DPMS LR-308 GII 24" Bull. I have had trouble with accuracy ever since I bought it. It came with a 6-18x50 Bushnell scope brand new in the box. I will fire two shots that are somewhat close to each other, but after my 3rd shot I will not hit the target. I notice the scattering of bullets. Is this a scope issue or a rifle issue? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Put some iron sights on it or another scope and see if the same thing occurs. When I start seeing unexplained flyers in ARs it's usually due to a loose barrel (barrel nut not torqued down enough).

I have one and took a while playing with different factory ammo. Mine shoots well with 168g black hills and 168 federal fusion ammo 5/8 group at 100. The 150g and 180g had groups 1.5 to 2 inches at 100. I have a Nikon bdc retical scope and it works perfect for it. Sighted in at 100 and hits clay pigeons at 200 and 300 the right marking. Did not test groups at 200 because that was close enough for pig hunting.
