Rem 700 Minimum Striker Spring Weight

ricco1949

My Rem 700, 6BR, set up for LRBR is giving me fits....4 and 1 grouping and/or random flyers at
three different nodes.

6 BR
H4895
Bart's Gungnir's
450's
8T & 7T barrels
Glue in

It can group in 2's followed up by a 1/2 inch or worse. Yes with flags....even in calm conditions. It will not agg.

Tried new barrel and different scope.

Seems to be ignition.

I decreased cock on close by .030 with a PTG cocking piece and pin....remaining pin-fall is .250+. However the problem existed before this.

.060 Pin protrusion

Pin, spring and cocking piece run free without drag.

I think the problem may be the 21# striker spring weight.

I've ordered new 24# and 28# springs.

Am I on the right track?
