[QUOTE="renegadelzard, post: 437987, member: 26916"] Hey all..im pulling my whiskers out here...here is the set-up 30-06 browning a-bolt, stainless factory barrel, walnut stock...havent cleaned the rifle in a while, perhaps 40 rounds through it since last cleaning...i went out today, and the first shot was around 4.5 inches high at 100 yards...i have it sighted in at 2.5 inches high at 100 yards...after the first shot, the rest settled down to where it was zeroed at...now, i know this isnt a precision rig, and 1 moa out of this gun is about as good as i can get, even with handloads..but this 2 inches high thing is killing me...anybody have any clues why and what i can do about it?...could it be moisture in the barrel slicking things up making that first shot faster?
