    I can understand how shooting position can alter POI and flex in less rigid stock designs with loading the bipod differently ect. But assuming you altered shooting position each range and only had results that didn't match at the last range seems like something else? The more experienced guys know best though I'd trust in their assumptions.. More shooting and verifying would have to be the best way to go though...

    Definitely agree with above, more verification is needed.

    A shift in elevation due to position can be so subtle it's not funny.
    Assuming bipod is loaded consistently (I personally do not load my bipod at all) the anomaly will start further back along the rifle due to hold and position on shoulder.
    Also cheek weld can have an influence.

    Try shifting everything and resetting up at 100 m between groups.
    Unless you have a sound, consistent technique, you will get a change in MPI from POA😆

    Yea that's what I used as well and was fine out to 400 but 580 didn't seem to work as well but I will need to check it again.

    You could be a mil click off. I reckon your bottom shot was a harder than usual hold but your shot slightly higher is about 1 click off if you're using a mil scope.

    Some scopes need to be true'd using the turret adjustment on the app. My march needed this because some genius used the American artillery version of the mil system when designing it. I had to tweak it to 1.0182 to get it tracking correctly (both elev and windage)
