[QUOTE="318lll9740, post: 1077210, member: 35398"] Its your barrel getting warm. I've been experimenting with this a lot here lately. Some gunmakers metal resist the warm/hot barrel walk more than others. My tikkas need a solid 7 minutes between shots to keep a 3 or 5 round group tight, and shots 4 and 5 need a great deal more cooling time than the previous shots. Now my brownings otoh, will allow me to shoot amazing 3 and five shot groups with a minute or two between rounds. I have also discovered that once the tikka barrel is warm, after second or third shot, it will laser the next 10 shots thru the same hole, where as once the browning is warm you have abount a 2" possible impact zone.
