You should have shot another group of 3 shot. Alot of guns group better after the barrel is fouled than they do with a clean barrel. Next time you shot a large group after cleaning shot another group without cleaning. That will tell you fast.

Larry,

the Mauser is a .308 with a 24" 1/10 twist. I am using 150 grain factory bullets.

Catfish,

I will fire more groups next time, doing the 'foul' shots.

But since my '06 is still dead on, I will use it Saturday, and zero the .308 after deer season.

Jon
