Try a different load.

Also check the usual suspects in this order: Ring and base screws tourqed to spec. Action screws tourqed to spec. Scope not pooched.

Sometimes rifles really just don't like certian ammo.

How does it shoot with other loads? If it shoots good with other loads, it's likely not a rifle or scope issue, so it probably just doesn't like that load. If that is the case, your only option is to go with another load.

You have two solutions:

The first is you sell the gun to greylynx for twenty bucks.

The second and more intelligent solution is to calm down, calm down at bit more, and take ElkHunter 11's post very seriously.

As mentioned, try a different ammo...Winchester Supreme 140gr Accubonds or 150gr XP3's, Federal 140gr AB's.

My Tikkas 270WSM's love 140gr AB's in the factory and even better with reloads.

If it still dont shoot, look at the scope and mounts.
