I do think at times the Rfree is a bit of a sacred cow . At one level if the maps look OK not much can be wrong.. Is the Ramachandran plot OK?
You dont say what the R factor is but does this mean there is a large difference between the Rfactor and Rfree? If you are using REFMAC look at the plots of R factor and Rfree v resolution? Is there a big divergence at some points? Could you have included overloads? Are there icerings? Then look at the plot of <Fos> v <Fcalc> v resolution/ Is the scaling procedure meaning these diverge in some regions? Is there some strange effects at low resolution? And so on and so on..
