jon lynn, "settle in the stock". If the action wasn't glas bedded, it usually takes a "bunch" of shots for the stock to compress the wood behind the recoil lug to where the action is snug in the stock. If your groups are improving don't worryabout the first shot being in a different place. After 40 shots and cleaning the barrel often, you are getting close. Usually 50 shots is considered as break in for the barrel. What caliberis the rifle? I hate to say this but sometimes on a new rifle the shooter isn't used to the trigger or the feel of the gun and the first shot "gets away". Then you bear down and the rest go where you are aiming. I think you should just keep going since I think you are on the right track.

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
