I have had a Remington 700 Miutain Rifle in .270 Win for about 25 years. It was rock solid for the first 10, then got a little twitchy. Barrel started requiring meticulous cleaning with limited range between "fouled enough" and "too dirty, then gummed the trigger up with WD 40 (it was the 80s...), eventually got it pillar bedded, then floated and recrowned barrel. Rick solid again for about 3 seasons, then it got the yips again. Pattern has been consistent: Requires a little fine tuning of scope (has had a few over the years) in late summer after a good defouling, then shoots pretty good for awhile. By the ending of the season with 0-5 shots, it is so far off I completely miss deer inside 100yrds. Get pissed and put it up for a couple years, then decided to retry it- repeat cycle.
Rifle has probably 800-1000 shots total on it. Any ideas???
