Thread: Re-checking my zero

I've shifted my scope back on my 17 MOA rail - as far back as it can go without blocking the bolt.

That seems to have produced a 2 MOA change in zero point.

So off the the 100 yard range to confirm the change ahead of a end of season shoot tomorrow.
A cold blustery wind blowing across the range.

Confirmed a +2 MOA change of zero.
The 300 yard zero wiil be at +2 MOA until I adjust the scope. I can allow for that.

Shot two groups - a 10 shot group on the right and a 6 shot group on the left.
The right group is about 3/4 MOA wide by 1 MOA high, the left group about 3/4 MOA wide by 1/2 MOA high.

Rifle: Barnard 308 action, 32" 1:10 True-Flite barrel.
155gr Lapua Scenar projectile in Lapua Palma cases with 44.5 gr Varget.
