The FAQ's are you best bet, Bob has set you straight!!

 Generally POI shifts with heat (like so many problems) are associated with the forend. Something is moving with that heat. Clean up the barrel channel, maybe float the forend. Check the forend "titeness" and torque that screw!!! While your at it, clean the latch, top and BOTTOM as well as the barrel shelf where it touches.
