[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 282734, member: 1521"] Outside of blind luck, cold bore shooting requires even more consistency than hot benchrest shooting -if taken to those standards. -If you use a Bipod, always use it. Get good with it. Develop a cold bore routine that you will always use whether at the range or in the field. -There are no sighters in hunting. No warming up the barrel before things 'count'. -The scope will need to be right on the money for your first shot. We're talking accuracy here, and not grouping. So evaluate your accuracy from center of mark and stop fiddling with further 'hot shots' for group. They will never matter... -Your load will have to be tested and prove reliable for this, from that barrel. -Your bore must be dry and so exactly as it always has been for the best CBS. So you need to pre-foul in a way that is very, very consistent. Many moly shooters have learned this, and I'm sure they do well with CB shooting. I've found that I can take a barrel to bare clean after each use, dry out with alcohol, and pre-foul with WS2 with excellent results. If I pull the gun from a safe tomorrow, or 6mos later, it will nail the mark. -There is nothing wrong with Sweets, I promise you. This product is not causing your problem. [/QUOTE]
