[QUOTE="renegadelzard, post: 438071, member: 26916"] im pretty sure is not me..that has to be the most common response right?..lol...the barrel is free floated, but i would imagine it needs a bed job...in all seriousness though, this isnt my first rodeo, ive been shooting for 20+ years now, and the 06 isnt exactly a light wieght, but the recoil is still far from unpleasant...here in kentucky, the longest shot i have ever had was 325 yards, so i know 2 inches isnt exactly crucial in this particular application, but the whole "good enough for hunting" mentality rubs my butt with a corncob...the thing that really got me wondering was tat usually code bore shots tend to be low, with subsequent shots stringing upward as the barrel heats...that struck me as odd...once the first shot is out, it groups reasonably well, but that first one is always high...should i run a dry patch through it before the first shot...would that change anything?
