I had posted the question on Bad Groups earlier. I'm now trying AA1680 and 190 gr smk's. Yester day and today, my first shot of a 5 shot string is about two in high and two in to the left. The gun has not been cleaned. The next four are anout 1" which is what I wanted. Why should the first shot be soo off? My groups both days and almost identical. Thanks

how rapidly did you fire the group? often the first shot from a cold bore can be into a different spot. . .

I know there can be some difference with a cold vs warm bore, but 2" high and 2"left? I found two other targets that are the same.
