I took it out this weekend and had trouble just keeping the shots on the target board (300yds). The grouping was very erratic, left and right, high, low, etc. This is with good quality ammunition, the same load the majority of us use for .303 Britishicon (Viht N140 -39.5gns, 174gn SMK, Privi cases, standard Remington primers).
I doubt its your reloads, I use the same load (but different bullets), I would say its a beding issue if the barrel is good, you mention it has never shot well, was this before or after the barrel change?
