I am very surprised that you got that good of groups with running a patch with Rem Oil between groups. Usually the first shot after doing something like that will be way out of the group. Also 50 yard groups can be VERY misleading. I once tried loading .308 diameter bullets for the 7.62x54R for a M-44 carbine. At 50 yards there was a ragged hole 5 shot group. Moved out to 100 yards and could not keep shots on a 2'x2' target and the ones that did hit left oblong holes. Switched to .311 diameter bullets and was under 1" at 100 yards and that is with open sights and a terrible trigger.
