[QUOTE="Barrelnut, post: 2588471, member: 74902"] While waiting for the borescope to arrive - It might be good to clean the barrel well and run a clean, or even oiled, patch slowly through the bore. See if you can feel anything out of the ordinary. Like maybe a sticky spot of loose spot. Sounds like something in the bore might be tearing/deforming the jacket enough to make the bullet unstable. I had a barrel with a loose spot so bad I could feel it with the patch. It is something that can happen with button rifled barrels. Vendor checked it. Vendor said sorry the barrel is outta spec and replaced it. You would think the gunsmith would have found something like this though..... [/QUOTE]
