It was shot in under 10 mimutes.
Being left handed with this rifle I need to dismount and unsling to work the bolt , so ya inconsistency is pretty high.
I`m sure it`d be different if I was right handed.

OK, fatigue & dismounting may well contribute.

I’d suggest shooting off the bench to see if the vertical stringing goes away.

Good idea!  & I'd wait a couple of minutes between shots too for more cooling.

Sounds like a plan, I`m at the range again tomorrow, I`ll see if I get a chance to punch some more holes.

Ya it started yesterday for me and ended....
Maybe before Christmas I`ll get out with my son-in-law with a bow, but right now there`s no walking around. Rifle season ends this Saturday or Sunday.

So you can't just "Hunt from your bathroom window" like Jeff Foxworthy!
Bummer dude.
These 3 are in between my fig tree & my veggie patch! & they crop all the new shoots from both!
That makes them a Nuisance animal!

I actually got back into archery this summer after a 20 year layoff. Went with a traditional recurve this time instead of a compound. Well, actually, bought two recurves! Kinda addicting like a certain British battle rifle!
