[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 498539, member: 1521"] Boss, we've missed each other in context. I wasn't talking about hot or cold powder, or outside temperatures, or fouling, or ES. I was referring to velocity climb from 1st shot of the day(cold) to any that would follow to make a group. A gunsmith cannot influence this, and it's not a problem for any of us to account for. But it is important to do so. So far I've used barrels from Lija, Pacnor, Border, Snyder, Wilson, Krieger, and a factory Browning. The cut rifled hold transient POI best, but every barrel I've seen to date climbs in velocity from the first cold shot to warm to hot. They all do it, there is no way around it. 'Sighters' in competition get the bore fresh fouled and up to stable temps, -before shooting a string for record. As you seem well aware, this is not what hunters do. Nice gun, looks Speedy built. But anyway, this is a hijack now [/QUOTE]
