[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3055555, member: 15054"] could be the recoil lug is not seated well or many other things. I must clean my guns barrel after about 20 shots or my accuracy suffers due to copper fouling. Just a little bit will open groups. But I can shoot 50+ times and still stay under 1" at 100 or 2" at 200.. but no way can I stay under 1" at 200 if i do not clean. But your description sounds like something other than a dirty barrel. Or a combo of many things. I do not like a lead sled at all. I feel the rifle needs to recoil naturally. And I tested my rifles in a lead sled vs a bag and the difference is huge. Big point of impact change. Only thing I use a lead sled for is to hold gun steady to adjust the scope or to clean the gun. I learned the hard way shooting for accuracy and best groups in the lead sled then go hunting and hit the animal 4" off of aim point.. Try it for yourself. I have 3 guns that shift the POI from bags to lead sled. But shooting off bags and shooting off my arm the POI stays the same. [/QUOTE]
