Years ago I worked with a fellow who won the NRA national smallbore championship at Camp Perry one year, senior class. Obviously he practiced nearly every weekend, and he was fanatical about ammo. He used fairly expensive match-grade ammo for practicing, and in competition he used very expensive stuff.
My suggestion is for you to try a box of match-grade ammo, such as Eley. If your groups don't shrink, then the problem is in your rifle. 3 inch groups at 75 yards is unacceptable in a varmint or target rifle. Also, you should be shooting off sandbags when you shoot your groups; it's very difficult to get consistent groups shooting on a bipod.
Another thing that's easy to forget is to make sure your "cheek weld" (the point your jaw touches the stock) is consistent. At 75 yards most scopes will have a bit of parallax error. You need to make sure your eye is the same distance from the scope's eyepiece every time you shoot.
