    My bad eyes probably don't help.

    I shot it on 10x. Would have been a nice group and would appear my zero was out a fraction but I checked velocity on a 6 rnd group a bit before and all 6 went bang on but around the same height off center.
    Dumb game this one



    @R93, it is a "dumb" game but it is fun! It is how we "catch ourselves" doing thing for a "good cause"… I am 100% sure i had 2 big flukes on my shooting… Sometimes "just" a bit of "canting" can change "that" much the POI…
    Keep the good work!

    Good thinking. Most likely a canting issue. I was playing around with some .38 sp loads in my. 357 while the barrel cooled on the .223 after the first group I fired while velocity testing.

    I think I remember lining up with the straight lines on the target which were not level without a second thought. Rookie error.
    I was also shooting off a bench which I rarely do so I was thinking I may have changed my position slightly after the first shot.
