[QUOTE="PowellSixO, post: 879246, member: 66495"] Ok, I went to the range last night and brought my chrony with me. I set up my fancy power wheels box with a piece of brown rapping paper on it. I drew a straight line on the box and put a mark at the base of it. I also put marks up the line at 5", 10", 15", and 20". I adjusted my scope according to each mark and fired 2 at each adjustmnet. All of them were right on the money. They all tracked straight up the line I drew. So I started to think about the chrony again. My velocities where taken when I was working up my load for my rifle. The last time I used my chrony, I only had 80-90 rounds down the pipe. Now I'm sitting closer to 300. So I set up the chrony again last night and fire 5 rounds through it. To my surprise, my average was 3159 fps with a difference of 12 fps between the 5 rounds. Is it possible for a barrel to get faster? Thanks everyone so far for the help. :) [/QUOTE]
