[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 682914, member: 17844"] The fact that you are asking these questions means you are fairly new to precision shooting. That is not a put down of any kind , just an observation. So I can pretty much guarantee that your shooting technique will get better with time and practise and the groups will shrink some more . Most any ammunition and gun combination can shoot better than most new shooters but in time that changes and you start getting better than the gun and ammo and then you start looking to improve things. You are already on that road by reloading and testing those loads . At some point you also have to start considering wind and it's effect on your groups. Your shooting technique is very important to get consistent accuracy and you have to do every thing possible to do it right and exactly the same each time including setting up the gun before you shoot or how you hold the gun. The best thing is find an experienced shooter at the range that actually likes helping people and get him to watch you shoot and assist you to make those small corrections to your style . Even world champions need to go back and readjust their styles from time to time as bad habits kind of creep in after a while. [/QUOTE]
