I'm going to try Bob's trick for sure, but that certainly won't be the end of it.  I'll just swap to a new target for the second+ shots when I'm at the range. 

Now to find time to experiment...

"ONLY RIFLE THAT WOULDN'T WAS THE FEW KIMBER I'VE PLAYED WITH"

So you're saying it happens.  :chuckle:

Is Kimber a cheap brand?1 you just buy,No good,Go buy another?
never once said it didn't happen.  No kimbers are not cheap.  They are very over priced dog turds in my opninion :chuckle:

or instead of wasting a lot of money in gas, range fees, and time you could just let your barrel fully cool between shots :chuckle:

What a novel concept.  :yeah: so much jibberish to end up at the same spot as several posts ago before all the bull.


Using what you Karl and Bullblaster have stated in this thread even if its 1 shot then home if it was fun and the shot placement was where expected.

Or the other one mentioned by others take other guns it will never be a waste of time.

Guy wants to shoot long oh mah.  You dont get proficient at that by shooting 5 rounds here and there.  Get a good zero and start banging.  If a gun cant hold moa after more than a couple rounds it's time to sell it and get something better suited for the task. 

Nobody even really knows what your point is since we cant sift through your own jibberish :twocents:

Locked for more than a barrell cool down.

@Oh Mah  My impression is you are nit picking for nit picking sake.

I may be missing other comments and am not going back over every post. Not all advice is perfect in the giving or receiving.  What you do with it is up to the individual.

This one is done.
