[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 527546, member: 2736"] That is very unusual, and It sounds like the load you are using or the bedding. I work up all of my loads with a clean barrel and If the SDs are not good I abandon them after 2 to 3 shots and clean for the next load to be tested. I once tried 10 different loads without cleaning and found little if any difference in SDs and group size. Then out of frustration I cleaned and shot 5 more of one of the previous loads and found them totally different than the first 5 fired in the fouled barrel. so now I clean before each new group is fired and the results are wide spread but I can home in on a good load quicker. Each barrel is different and have to be treated differently. There is something that is causing this and you just have to find it. Hart barrels are very good and it is unusual for them not to perform if everything is correct. You just have to attack them one at a time until you find the problem. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
