[QUOTE="Browning16, post: 677432, member: 51643"] I think the wind could have definitely been some of it, but at three hundred yards that wind shouldn't have been walking us around the target up and down left and right like it did. I'm obviously no expert but that was more than the wind. i understand my windage adjustment wasn't perfect, no where near it, but we were just trying to dial in for elevation and we decided we should account for some of the wind to keep us on the target. In regards to the barrel walking, I can definitely believe that, we will make sure to pay more attention to giving some time between shots next round. We did go to the local club and shoot a hundred yo check the zero, like I mentioned l, and used a barber pole to check the mils. And we put 6 rounds on target there. Then proceeded to drive ten minutes and get setup to shoot 300, which was probably at least a half an hour total before we got a target set up, and out "cold" bore shot on the 300 harder was dead on left to right and an inch and a half low, second round was 2 inches below that, then they started to get random, coincidence? Idk, maybe [/QUOTE]
