[QUOTE="OneLunG, post: 395029, member: 17013"] The conditions your shooting in and the conditions your going to be shooting in will have a minimal effect on your POI and your zero for the ranges your shooting at. I had my duty rifle zeroed here in AK, when I went to LA, CA for training, it was substantially warmer, and higher Elevation. My POA POI was still the exact same. Now, as far as your cold bore. Your changes in impact are likely a result of you. What you need to do is shoot a cold bore for several days, then look at your targets. If they are consistently hitting the same area, adjust the required clicks per your scope. Then, do several cold bores again. If for a day or two your not hitting where you think you should, don't play with the scope, just do some more cold bores. Often times many people get to hooked up on adjusting their scopes because the shot didn't go exactly where they wanted it. Most likely it is a result of somthing they did with their shooting mechanics, not a change in the rifle. [/QUOTE]
