Setup: 20 inch stock barrel, MDT LSS-RF chassis, actions screws torqued 30 in-lbs, Scope: Sightron Bigsky, YoDave trigger spring, DIP rail, Limbsaver dampener on barrel end
Most groups will be shot from front rest/rear bag sitting but will throw some bipod/prone in as well.
Today's best: Wolf Target match, 5 shot groups, 50 yds
Conditions: Overcast 31°F, 2-3mph gusts
Average speed: 1060 fps, with ES of 47fps, no foulers between groups
Groups 1-3 shot back to back. Only break in between was to reload the dip mag. Followed by a 10 minute break to rewarm before shooting groups 4,5,6. The cold had me shaking like a dog shitting choker chain.
Best explanation for groups 4+5 -time allowed for barrel to cool in cold weather + the buildup of 100+ rounds already sent down range made them open back up.
Extra: shot 10 rounds of Wolf prior to 6 groups shown. This ammo was the 3rd through the gun. First was a box of SK rifle match followed by box of SK flatnose basic. Both of those bullets put together decent groups but not as consistent as Wolf + frequent flyers.
