Recently purchased RRA 24" varmint. I have only tried BH 68gr match HP it did not shoot a consistent group at all from reading other postings I beleive I should go the BH 77gr Match King. What would be recomended.

it should shoot 68gr.  are you sure it's 1:8"?  to be sure, with your cleaning rod, use some tape as a flag/marker, run the rod down the barrel until it make 1 rotation.  did it take 8" or 12" to make the turn?  
FYI, i have a 1:12" and it likes the BH 52gr Match

Thanks for the advice. It's supposed to be a 1 in 8. I hope that is the problem.
