Awesome glad it worked out for you. I've got a RA compact 308 that is really accurate after initial so so with the first generation wobbly stock touching all along one side. I opened it up and made sure it was clear of the barrel all along and all was good.
308 Ruger American accuracy.

Well here are the results. I used 168 and 150 grain several variations. I used bipod, lead sled and sand bags. After getting my rifle back from Ruger it did help. The groups I was getting was in the 6 in range. This has been cut in about half. At 100 yards I was getting about 3 inch groups. It did not seem to matter what the ammo or rest I used. I am at a loss and have decided that this gun is just not for me. I will chalk it up to me and the gun do not seem to work together. I don't want to blame the gun. Ruger said that they were getting shots through the same hole at 50 yards. I have now tried three scopes and several types of ammo and three different rests. I think its time to sell it and maybe go with the Savage or Remington.

You were patient and tried, thats all anyone can ask.
Life is too short to shoot an inaccurate rifle.
