Hi guys,
I've got a bit of a problem with my 243, well to be more precise I think it's always shot fairly erratically but good enough for deer stalking at reasonable ranges. Now that I've got a 30-06 that is super consistent and accurate, I can assume it wasn't me being a crap shooter and so want to get the accuracy issue addressed with the 243. Basically I'm starting to need this rifle for foxing and I need a 250m capable fox gun and it's not accurate enough for that at the moment.
I've recently noticed a tiny chip on the crown, which may be contributing, but also it's pretty old and I have a suspicion the barrel maybe worn out. I pillar bedded the action a couple of years ago which massively improved and I'm confident it's a good. Oh it's a Musgrave mauser 98 action.
Is there a decent gunsmith in my area that can inspect, borescope, and rebarrell/blueprint(?) if necessary?
thanks
