[QUOTE="SBruce, post: 435388, member: 21068"] I wouldn't be suprised if the "sled seating" is an issue to a degree. A friends new 338 Edge consistently shoots 1 moa different impact when shooting off a bipod vs the sandbags. He said it shot good groups either way, but a certain change in poi by using a different rest. One other thought: maybe try cleaning it and shoot a few fowlers, then see if the cold bore issue still exists. Woudn't suprise me if an extreme powder fowled barrel is absorbing a little moisture or something in between range sessions. Perhaps not alot, but enough to throw that 1st shot out of the group.?? No gaurantee that either thing I mentioned is the culprit, but easy to check and not really too time consuming. [/QUOTE]
