[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 836706, member: 5302"] If your point of bullet imact moves as the barrel heats up, it's either fit improperly to the receiver or made with poor metal. Good barrels properly fit don't walk shot impact as they heat up. If the barrel doesn't shoot accurate from the start of group shooting and needs a few to several shots through it to shoot accurate, it's got a rough enough finish in the bore that jacket material has to be wiped off several bullets to fill up the rough spots until no more bullet jacket material's rubbed off subsequently shot bullets. If this is the case, then don't clean it squeaky clean after each shooting session. Leave some copper in the bore so it'll shoot to point of aim next time out. [/QUOTE]
