Options other than a custom rifle

I suggest a Sabatti Tactical Evo US for something different. Multi Radial Rifling. I have one in 308 and I shoot approx. .6 MOA with cheap PMC X-Tac match (168gr OTM). With Remington or Federal match, it's between .4 and .6 MOA. I don't reload. I'm a beginner too!

I also had some misfire before I realized that the pierced primers were leaving metal crap in the firing hole and it was jamming the firing pin. Now if I pierce one primer, I stop shooting it until I open and clean the bolt.

I do that now that I know what was going on, haha!

I will try Magnum primers if it isn't resolved. Thing is, I have all this small primer brass from the covid primer famine when all I could get was small primers.
