In my on-again, off-again soap opera I keep trying to get at the root cause of why the accuracy is so inconsistent with my new 41 mag Big Boy. I kept thinking it had to be something with the scope mounts/rings etc.
This morning I discovered that yet again the screws in the receiver had become loose and re-tightened them. I probably should have put two and two together a while ago and deduced that screws coming loose repeatedly was not a normal thing--but I've never experienced this before.
So I tightened them and took out some mild loads to see if it grouped any better. After a few shots (which still grouped widely inaccurate) the action became very stiff with the bolt seemingly resisting chambering. My intuition told me the next shot could be the big KABOOM so I stopped right there.
Tomorrow I call Henry to see what they say.
