Thanks for the replies guys,
I'm thinking a couple of you have touched on something I missed in my frustration on sunday. I had thought I'd beaten the flinch with lots of practice but sunday when I decided to go for a quick walk and confirm my zero, I grabbed my rifle, threw a handful of rounds in pocket, grabbed a hunk of 4x2 to shoot at, walked down the back and set up. Forgetting ear pro, it honestly never even twigged in my mind. Shot first two rounds great, third I didn't even see hit, but went for a walk and found a hole in the hill 4 inch to the right. Realized I'd flinched went back and did another couple of shots alright but fighting the flinch, it wasn't comfortable shooting. It still nevery occurred to me that I had no muff's on. I'll go down one night this week and try again but I think that's the problem as I hadn't noticed it for a couple of years and the first couple of shoots were sweet, then I guess it got to me. Probably did a bit of damage to my shooting technique with this simple stupid mistake.
Thanks for your help guys hopefully I can get it sorted because I wasn't wanting to shell out for any thing new yet trying to save up for a semi custom bolt action.
