    We’ve got some interesting velocity data here.

    This is a couple more pictures, not quite on the exact topic of cold bore vs subsequent groups but related:

    The first shot was the one at 5 oclock.
    This was prone with no rest at 100m.

    A bit of light relief, some gun prn:

    I came up 3 clicks and tightened them to 45 in.lb.
    20 shots later (dont look at the kneeling and standing …) and here is the sitting , again no rest or sling:

    Possibly not as scientific as Gimp’s Quality Assurance but supports previous experience that its OK to take the stock off and put back on for this sort of shooting.
    Tahr and Trout like this.
