[QUOTE="Salmonchaser, post: 1524577, member: 107697"] When I was on the job I probably made it to the range one day/week three out of four weeks month. Logged absolutely every shot fired out of four different rifles over 20 years. I'm guessing at about 10 years I started saving my cold barrel target in a note book. Date time conditions noted on the target. Three rifles, hundreds of rounds, factory ammo, good days bad days throw out a few outliers, one ragged one inch hole. So for your next 10 range trips save that one cold barrel target, exact same aiming point, overlay them and measure. There you have it, particularly if it's a hunting rifle. That'll give you an honest picture of you and your rifles capabilities. Good days bad days, can you ring the steel right now. Now stop driving yourself nuts. [/QUOTE]
