Thank you --- Before shooting for groups I shot 10 fouling shots. So if I were switching to Wolf Target, I would shoot 10 rounds of Wolf Target and then using the exact same ammo shoot for group.

I too was a little surprised by the Savage. The Savage has about 200 rounds through it so far. I truly believe it was my issue as I had got use to shooting 1lb triggers all day then the last rifle I shoot has a 3.5lb trigger.

Quote form the article just fyi

I received many emails from the Day1 testing about the cleaning procedure and fouling shots between brands of ammunition. This time between each groupings of shots a bore snake lubricated with frog lube was pulled through the bore twice. Then 10 fouling shots were fired with the exact same ammunition before firing the official 5 shot grouping.
