[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 909164, member: 2736"] Broz has a good point. "I" consider a cold bore shot the first shot in a cold clean barrel. If a barrel shoots best after 1 fouling shot and it is not followed immediately by a second shot the second shot after cleaning is a cold bore shot. (Hence the name Cold bore). On the rifle that requires a single fouling shot It may be weeks before it is used for hunting and I consider the first shot is a cold bore shot because I am depending on the rifle to dead on for the first shot when barrel, receiver, stock and everything else is at ambient temp. Clean can be the first shot after cleaning and a cold bore shot to, It just depends on your conditioning of the barrel before making that all important first shot. As to the issue of V Blocks not needing bedding, one way to find out is to bed it. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
