[QUOTE="rcoody, post: 1112106, member: 91090"] my experience is barrels are different. Some like it clean and accuracy starts to go away quickly at 20 or 25 rounds. some don't settle down after cleaning for 5 shots and will stay the same clean or dirty some barrels need to be warmed up to shoot good clean or dirty. My precision AR is that way. most throw that first round out of normal grouping after cleaning and settle down after that. On a hunting rifle that cold bore shot is all that really matters or at least it should be. When it gets close to hunting season I take my hunting rifle on every range session and only shoot that one shot. I am lucky. That rifle is very consistent with its cold bore shot. I am a cleaner. Can't relax till the guns are clean after a range session. Grew up that way. My father and I bird hunted every chance we got. Always cleaned the guns after taking care of the dogs and cleaning the birds. [/QUOTE]
