RE: Hot weather shooting.
 
I am pretty sure I shoot better groups in cold weather, not sure about my rifle. Due to such a long time required to get the barrel cooled down between groups, I don't do much accuracy shooting in hot weather. Further, I use a couple fairly intense calibers, and load them that way, have not had them lock up, but occasionally will notice signicanty flatter primers, cratering, etc. on hot day shoots.

Yup! That's the way it is!
