[QUOTE="flintlock hunter, post: 2201235, member: 118777"] I'm breaking in a Savage Axis II in 30/06 right now that I won in an NRA Banquet raffle. It only has about 25 rounds through it so far, but the POI has begun to drift downward about an inch. Sometimes the fouling round is in the group, (the best so far is a couple of 5/8 inch @ 100 yds), others a flier brings the group out to 1 1/14". This is with the family pet load, because factory is a consistant 1 1/4". I've had muzzleloaders exibit this before, but I don't recall a modern rifle sharing this. My flintlock took about 75-100 patched roundball to settle in, but does anyonne have an idea how long/many rounds a modern with its' much higher velocity will take? [/QUOTE]
