Default RE: breaking in a rifle

You are sighted in now. Groups stringing vertically is common on many rifles. It usually means you have upward pressure against the barrel and it starts affecting the groupsas the barrel warms up. It will continue to do that til you find whatever is causing the pressure and relieve it. That's why many bolt actions have "floating" barrels. You may have to sand some wood away from your forearm
