[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 374032, member: 5302"] I've never worried about barrels heating up and changing point of impact along the way. If this happens, the barrel's got problems. It's not stress relieved properly or put in a receiver that's not had its face squared with barrel tenon axis. If a few fouling shots are needed, then the barrel's got a rough bore surface and has to have some bullet jacket material scraped off a few bullets before no jacket scraping happens. If one shoots several groups and they're not within 10% of each other for size, one's not shooting enough shots per group. Groups with less than 15 shots are meaningless if you want to know what the accuracy is you can count on most of the time. [/QUOTE]
