Well I agree with Sabotloader on this one. I think the temperature effects the stocks. I have wondered if the laminated and composite stocks are more forgiving then the wood. (maybe that multicolored one of sabotloaders is the answer. Your so dazzled by the colors you don't care where it shoots.. )

My White does not seem to care what temperature it is though, it just shoots. Now my Knight Disc is a real nightmare. When it gets hot you might as well save your powder. It will be shooting excellent one day, and the next day spray the board. I even had a friend shoot it one day to see if it was just me missing. He could not hold a group with it either.

5 inches does seem like a lot. I think you have to take time off work and force yourself to spend more time on the range with that rifle. I know its a lot to ask, but I would shoot the devil out of it in all kinds of weather before I make two different sight adjustments.

Wisconsin gun season (modern) is hard to judge it can be in the 60's or in the -20's just luck of the draw. Now muzzleloader season at the end of December is going to be COLD. Very seldom is it warmer then 40 degrees. Maybe that's why I like that season so much.

Good luck shooting that rifle. What rate twist does that rifle barrel have? 1-20 or 1-32? I saw a .54 caliber model for sale and I got the urge to put a bid on it. Always wanted one of them or a Firestorm flintlock, but I need another rifle (as I have been told so many time) like I need anotherhole in the head.
