[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 1307382, member: 88320"] I shoot 3-5 shot groups depending on cartridge and barrel. 3 shots for my big magnums since barrel gets freaking hot in 3 rounds. 5 shot groups in standard cartridges with heavier barrels. I never intentionally wait between shots, I just shoot at a comfortable pace between shots. I feel the gun needs to be consistent for 3 reasonably quick shots since that replicates what a real hunting scenario could be. Mostly its done in 1, but I have had to take a few follow ups over the years. I do wait 5-10 minutes(or how ever long for barrel to cool) in-between groups. I have had load work up take as little as 15-20 shots and as much as 60-70 depending on how sensitive each gun is and how picky I am with each gun. [/QUOTE]
