Mike!
Here's a tip: Be sure to close BOTH eyes when shooting! (Heh!)
Stellar groups buddy!

Thanks Mike
Sure beats the groups off my car's trunk in Ramona
My shooting stunk worse than the cow field where we were shooting

While not my rifle or shooting it, good friend who recently purchased a Long barrel EVO in .22 sent me this group shot at 100 yards with JSB 25.4 RD's .... Very similar that is telling the crew at SKOUT have been busy refining there rifles

When I had my Skout I made a 3” wide pcs. Of Delrin in front and a v shaped pcs. For rear. That helps a lot for tracking and no binding.

This do nothing good for my caliber envy
And i sure as hell can t get .177 to do that, no matter what i shoot

Looking at your usually stellar targets, have you considered pulling a patch through yer barrel to see if those stellar groups return?
Sometimes a not-so-clean barrel will perform similar to yer pics, telling you to clean it.
Just a minor observation, of which I'm reasonably sure that ya already know, but thought to remind ya.

Hi Mike
I clean out the barrel with wet/dry patches after every session.
i was kinda thinking of just leaving it alone after the last session…but cleaned out out of habit
Thank you for the suggestion…to tell you the truth, I was a little worried that I made a mistake by cleaning it

If it's shooting well, but with minor misses, perhaps just a single dry patch pull through might be the answer, just so that it doesn't pull too much out to induce re-seasoning.
Sometimes over-cleaning is not the right thing to do.
Although it seems that your routine may also be the answer as the previously posted groups were stellar.

Couldn’t the change in his groups also have been contributed to by a 10-15 fps change in velocity? i think I might go back to the 980-985 fps of the previous groups and see if they tighten back up a bit.
What prompted the change to 970 fps?

Hi @Chuck26287
Just testing things out
the 970 fps was my original settings...i'll jump back and forth to nail it down
The regulators make it very easy to do
