So I could not wait any longer and decided to go to my local range what ever the weather was going to be. Loaded up on 25 yards with my 1928 that I scout scoped since my eyes are shot... Zeroed her in with a few shots. No problems.

So then I moved up to the 50y line and did some more shooting. I was shooting from one of those cheap plastic rifle rests from MTM. Not really comfy with the mosin I have to add. May I add that I ran the bore snake after moving to the 50 yards and I let the barrel cool down. This is what I got.

So then I did the same thing. Run the bore snake and let cool.
Moved over to the 100 line. This is where I was a bit surprised. Did not change the elevation. Only adjusted windage.??? This is the result.

I also had a box of PPU FMJ to try. Not buying them again after this result.

Now for a side note. While cleaning the bore, I notice that at about 1.5 to 2 inches at the muzzle there seems to be a wave in the barrel when I bush the brush. I did not try the other way since I only clean out the muzzle. It really feels as is the barrel is wavy at the end????? I stared down the barrel under different lights and cant see any deformations.....
Any ways, Just wanted to share my shooting with you guys. If anyone has any advice on how to make her group better please feel free to say!
