[QUOTE="Lonewolf74, post: 1470835, member: 96274"] Cold bore is completely different from the cold weld phenomenon. The cold weld happens with loaded ammo that has sat for a while, generally ppl see issues (high ES or tough to pull bullets) when it's 6 months or more old. Cold bore is an issue many ppl see in that the very first round of the day can be as much as a couple inches off at a 100 yards then subsequent shots are in a nice little group. I don't have any explanation for this only to check and see if your rifle constantly does it. Clean cold bore is yet another condition and may be more pronounced than just cold bore. It may also take several shots for the barrel to settle back into it's typical shooting characteristics. [/QUOTE]
