Hey guys, new shooter. I have a Savage 10fp-sr in .223. Here is some backstory. Im very NEW shooter, basically trying to beat my friends in precision shooting 100-200 yards. I have a SWFA 10x SS scope on it. Last year I wasnt very accurate and consistant. This year after reading alot on here over the winter about breathing, and changing my ammo to some Hornady Match ammo I got ALOT better. And up untill last weekend, I have been shooting GREAT (for me). Well I signed up for a local rifle club shoot thats in about three weeks and decided to go out on my own the other night. Well needed less to say I SUCKED. My groups were 2" off center and I couldnt do better. It was like my rifle was 'off'. I shot 40 rounds untill the barrel was scorching hot, got frusterated and went home.
I havnt really cleaned my rifle at all since ive had it. Up untill this weekend its shot great and i didnt want to mess it up.
This couldnt be it ? Or maybe its just one of those days ?
Dont bother flaming me for not cleaning, ill clean it but im curious everyones thoughts.
