[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 242772, member: 13285"] GiDay Mate, Just accept that your rifle may not be able to group 5 shots into the one hole. As your barrel gets hot the internal stresses within the barrel metal cause the barrel to change shape. Some barrels do it more than others. My advice is to fire a couple of shots, wait until the barrel cools completely then fire a few more. See if this helps before you start pulling your rifle apart. [/QUOTE]
