Range trip diagnosis - 11/12/15 01:16 AM
I'm just going to list the facts
- normal is dime size groups for the rifle to big bug hole
- overall round count is probably around 250 or less , never cleaned
- using a CDS dial, I'm now shooting 1/4" high (not a big deal to me)
- I shot at an indoor range
- I would have one perfect bull then two mostly high left, then I would go back to bull
- all said and done I'm probably 3/4" groups at 100. ( fine to kill a deer, but not tight as normal)
- I took a decent amount of time between shot so barrel didn't heat up
Is it me? Barrel needs to be clean? Need to tweak loads?
Will it rise 1/4 when the barrel gets seasoned and faster?
