    As you say cam, the head is stamped but that's nothing different.

    Interesting, can you tell us more about the rifle? is it at all possible a different hold/bipodload/flexystock/parallax issue/level of fouling has contributed?

    80mm is no doubt a significant shift... had the rifle sat fouled for some time or had a number of rounds threw since last on paper without cleaning?

    I don't think the barrel temp is really an indicator of anything other than the ambient temperature and rounds fired.
    Dead is better likes this.
