[QUOTE="robbobsam, post: 400963, member: 25432"] I have done the barrel break in with the following routine; shoot 1 clean with solvent shoot 1 clean with solvent shoot 1 clean with solvent shoot 3 clean with solvent shoot 3 clean with solvent shoot 3 clean with solvent I am able to hit rabbits at 260yds with the rifle as it is and group norma ammo with 75 grain hornady balistic tips within 1". It just seems to be very ammo fussy, I will try all the things you suggest all the same. I am going to get some RCBS reloading gear and really try and tighten the groups up as well. I am new to centerfire and to hit rabbits at 260yds for me after air rifles and rimfire rifles is just amazing. I know it is very small potatos to you guys, but its a start. Out of curiosity, how accurate are the drop charts on factory ammo boxes??? [/QUOTE]
