[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 471778, member: 1007"] I dont speak for anybody else here but I can for that in my experience with a couple of barrels that demonstrated this, I could count on it every time. One of the best examples of this I have is a MarkV 30-378 I used to have that would put the first of 2 bullets in a 2 bullet group anywhere and everywhere on a target at 200 yards. Many times as much as 6 or more inches from the middle. The second shot would hit the middle. Let her cool for 15 minutes, start over. The first was anyones guess, the second, right in the middle. After doing this 4 times I had a perfect little nickel size hole in the middle of the target. Too bad I couldnt get her to do that with the first of 2. Another load I had would shoot sub 1" 3 shot groups at 300 yards after firing 3 or 4 rounds. This was the consistent story of that rifle for the duration of my ownership. After 6 months of pulling my hair out, I sold the ***. It was scary accurate after it was warmed up. Before that the misses were huge. M [/QUOTE]
