I was holding my tongue just right on the first group...only to relaize I just shot a decent one (for me) on the sighter. Of course I promptly lost the whole thing when I had to reshoot it on the scoring target...

ARRRRGH!
Don't feel bad, I did pretty much the same thing
I started my first target with 2 going into basically one hole, then an adjustment for the x
Awesome! Lets run with this luck!
then when I went to record target -after printing into the X again
... it suddenly started spitting shots all over the place
I shot the first 2 targets that way before I stopped - I knew something was seriously wrong and I went over the gun, checking the typical, scope loose?, Tuner come loose? and found out what it was
I thought maybe the barrel needed to be cleaned, but it still shouldnt shoot that erratically from just the barrel being dirty, but still, next step right? so when I went to pull the bolt out -
---my Rem 700 bolt stop fell down into the stock :O
lol
After I fixed that it went back to shooting like normal but
my first 2 targets are ruined due to a walked out rear trigger pin
(replaced the trigger pin)

1st pic - how my first sighters printed so proceeded straight to record target #1
2nd pic - started off with 2 right up the 'X' -
---------- then suddenly, that must have been when the trigger pin walked out
3rd pic - Record Tgt #3, gun fixed and back to shooting normal
4th pic - Record Tgt #4 running the condition then threw the 5th shot

After readin several of our posts
I bet we're all ready for a do over... or best 3 out of 5 on this one
