Someone said earlier to try different ammo, I think that will help too.
Go with the federal gold medal match in 175gr. Those savage model 10 308s love it. I have one and it will put a 5 shot group at 3/4moa with factory ammo.
Is the barrel free floated or bedded?
You might want to try shooting with the rest under the action. No stress on the barrel.
How is the crown of the barrel? Check it for a burr or buggered rifling.
If all of that looks good, then maybe a few boxes of ammo through the barrel will help.
Good Luck!
Dial the magnification down, you don't need 9x for 100 yds. Try 4-5 x.
Bingo!!
What kind of rings are you using, steel or aluminum?
To make a very long story short - no more aluminum rings or mounts for me, only steel now & zero problems.
