[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1445787, member: 11960"] I'm waiting on one of the Nucleus actions as well, they look like a pretty nice action for the money. Now to wait for it to show up! Another approach to zeroing each barrel would be to simply enter in a non-standard zero in whatever ballistic app you use. For example, I use the Shooter App most of the time and it allows me to set up an off set zero for each load. You could screw the most used barrel on, get your load all dialed in, then zero your turrets (and set a zero stop if you have one). For the next barrel you throw on there, try shooting it and see how close the impact is to the zero from the first barrel. If it's not that far off, just set an off set zero for that load. Instead of saying it's zeroed at 100 yards it would be zeroed 1.3" low and 2.7" right at 100 yards. Then all of your corrections given by the app would account for your non standard zero. I've used this method before with good results. It gets a little tough if you don't have a zero stop though and dial multiple revolutions. I was off by more than one full revolution on more occasions than I'd like to admit to! LOL [/QUOTE]
