[QUOTE="D.Camilleri, post: 1189086, member: 2567"] Things like this make me want to pull my hair out! From the time I got this new barrel, I poi would change as the barrel warmed up. The funny thing is that it would group very well with a warm barrel, but the poi would shift when it cooled off. I think I am starting to understand that part, but now my old standby loads won't shoot. I don't think I have any stress in the bedding, but maybe I should put my old stock on for a test and see if anything changes. On a good note, Sightron emailed and my SIII is on it's way back with updated turrets and a MOA reticle. I am going to clean the copper out of the barrel tonight and let my smith have a look with his bore scope and see what he thinks. I agree with Bigngreen that there could be some stress in this barrel. [/QUOTE]
