    Did it occour to any of you that he may have pushed a clean patch threw before shooting and it takes a few rounds to burn out any remaining oil?

    It is pretty common for..................no it is more common than not for a cold clean lubed and wiped clean barrel to throw its first shot(usually low) or two due to being Lubed and or Clean due to a reduction in pressure.

    Most lubricants work best when applied liberally then wiped off till you think it is all gone(it isnt!)
