New Years eve bullet rise will be evident by the amount of holes in objects as the bullets fall out of the sky
I just went with my old regimen and let her ride.Will continue to do so.I have learned its tough to ask for help and actually get it.
I've never had a new rifle...never knew anything about a barrel break in....but I learnt from a dear freind of mine how to set my scope up...it seems to work for me
No. Yeast. Bullets made with yeast will rise if left to proof. Unleavened bullets fall.
A headwind will push a bullet down; a tailwind will pick the bullet up.
When the bullet is fired through a barrel with a right hand twist, a left-right full value wind will push the bullet to the right and slightly down. A full value right-left wind will push the bullet to the left and pick it up slightly.
Then there’s spindrift. Over a long distance, a bullet fired through a right twist barrel will bear to the right. With all other factors being equal, the faster the twist the more the spindrift.

Usually at the gun range.
This is not consistent. I have had days where the bullets veered in all directions.
Yep that's how I do it, a 25 meter battle zero is good nuff out to 300 meters, on a human sized target. If shooting bullseye at say 100 yards, that is where you should zero it when shooting smaller targets.
