I've got a new Knight Extreme that I've shot about 20 times. I'm just starting to find a good load for it. I tried some of the new 290 gr. Barnes TMZs with 100gr (2 pellets) of Triple 7 and the new Triple 7 primers. First shot was about 7 inches low. Second, third, and fouth shots were good. 2, 3, 4 shots group size was 2.25 inches.
The first shot was through a cold and clean barrel. Does this affect shot placement that much?
I thought my group size would be better. I know it's not a bench rest centerfire, but is 1 or 1.5 inch asking too much?
After each shot I run a 1 patch with solvent down the barrel, then 1 dry patch.
What am I doing wrong?
