[QUOTE="Radman, post: 1964206, member: 112033"] It's what my shooting circle calls the cold shot. It can be due to a number of things such as thermal expansion, lube in your barrel (as someone else mentions) and largely due to whether you clean your bore each time you put it away. IN MY EXPERIENCE, in that case your first shot will nearly always deviate. As long as you know, no big deal. (I personally have noticed it more on stainless barrels than black) IMO: If you zero your gun for that cold shot you're a hunter. If you zero for the subsequent shots you're a target shooter. Just my personal take. Lots of opinions on this. [/QUOTE]
