so i called up browning this morning...their response: their rifles are designed to be accurate for 2-3 shots, andthey have no ammunition recommendations beyond "factory loaded." basically iftheriflecan't robinhood two shots on a cold clean barrel, there's something wrong with the rifle....but after two shots it's gonna move. they said for higher volume shooting a different ammunition *might* help make the groups a bit smaller, but again, no recommendations.

so yeah, i'm glad this is my hunting rifle and not my competition gun!
