    I reckon it's a parallax error thing up close. If you botch it up close at 100m it seems to throw me off worse than if I have error at say 500m. The closer your scope is to the infinity setting on the focus wheel the less a shitty eye position can effect your groups. I don't reckon it's got anything to do with ammo or the rifle. That makes no sense to me
