Grouping - semi vs bolt. - Page 2

I have had both semi's and bolts that would just not shoot straight, I had a Rem 7400 308 that on a bench rest would hit 3"-4" apart every shot, and when it was Hot, forget it I would be lucky to hit a 6" paper plate at 75 yrds. I also had a Win 70 pre 64 30-06 that was about the same, I traded those lemons off after realizing why I got such a "good" deal on them.
My hunting rifle is a Win 70 reatherweight 308 with a fixed 4 power scope and I can bench rest it and take out dimes at 100 yrds everytime, even when hot. Where I live you really don't need a super accutate 1/2" gun cause most shots are only 30-75yrds out, and mainly on running deer (I like to HUNT, not sit).
The most accurate semi i have ever owned was a Win model 100 308, man that thing was a blast to shoot.
