Hi all,
I won’t call it extreme cold, fully aware we have many true arctic circle folks here
I was shooting outside yesterday, maybe between -20C -16C give or take. First few minutes all’s good and I was able to put everything in the same dime hole from my gallery distance. But after 10 minutes or so the POI starts shifting and then the group opened up drastically. .
Just wondering if anyone else have experienced similar situations? Looking for your expert opinion whether it is my ammo, gun or red dot affected by the temperature. I am used to shooting centre-fire in the cold so I’m pretty shoot it wasn’t me.
I was using cheap Winchester Wildcat. In a new Henry pump, with a red-dot.
I’m thinking about going out again today to test, it’s -23 ish today, might try with “heated” ammo but in a cold gun to see. Hoping it’s just ammo behaviour.
Cheers! Thanks for reading.
Watch and see... Exactly what you experienced
