[QUOTE="82nd Bill, post: 2879569, member: 115346"] I have several CF rigs and they all creep with heat (3-5 rds). CF is not cooler but it dissipates the heat a little better then steal. That said you are generating a tremendous amount of heat with a 300 PRC and 1-2 minutes is not nearly enough time to cool. When I zero I want to know the cold bore and the follow-up shot. those are the important ones, and I zero the cold bore. My smaller calibers have nearly no creep and my 7 SAUM and 300wsm have a .25" shift on those two shots. Great hunting group. Check your float to be sure and if it is a lightweight stock don't rest it on or near the front end as it can flex and change the POI. Remember it is a hunting rig and not a competition rig. [/QUOTE]
