    If I get a result like this I always fire another group just to check if it was a 'cold bore' shot.

    Since you didn't (and I suspect you may not be at the range for a while), I would personally go off the tight group as the zero (and adjust the scope down).

    A good job and a good wife has been the ruin of many a good hunter.

    Yea the weather was only just holding on for us and the neighbours get a bit touchy at a mates place.
