[QUOTE="lancetkenyon, post: 1471670, member: 68875"] This. I bet 80% of "cold bore flyers" is much more attributed to "cold shooter". As for "cold bore", in my opinion, it is any shot from an ambient temperature barrel. Here is a set of 3 individually fired shots over the span of 2.5 hours @ 200 yards. L-R Wind grew slightly over the morning. I would consider these all "cold bore" shots. But not "cold shooter". 6.5SS pushing a 150 SMK @ 3114fps.

This was a "cold bore, cold shooter" shot.
