Hello,
I was just getting my Model 70 30-'06 ready for an upcoming pig hunt. Yesterday I fired a 1.5" 3 shot group from a cold barrel (succesive shots were in a vertical string hi to low). Then shot a 0.45" group.
This morning I repeated the setup, 3 shots into 1.5" followed by 0.39" group. There was a 5minute break between groups.
The barrel is free-floated although I'm going to retest it warm tomorrow morning. I'm also using a new Nikon 3-9X Scope on a one-piece base.
Certainly good enough to hunt with, but does anyone know what's happening?
Cheers,
Bryan Hoyer
