[QUOTE="Jonoton, post: 1869228, member: 100300"] I remember reading about this phenomenon in the context of military shooting competitions btw Brits and US service members. The Brit .303 rifles supposedly didn't 'settle down' at the shorter 100y or meter range. I never could see how it was possible - the bullet doesn't know where it was at the supposed transition point where it 'goes to sleep!' Was it at 12:00 or 5:00? I can see a case where a bullet does 'settle down' and the rate of deviation decreases, i.e. the bullet does not continue becoming MORE inaccurate after a certain point. [/QUOTE]
