[QUOTE="silvertip-co, post: 176840, member: 8712"] I dont know about all that, but I do highly suspect the bullet is cast right or left after it exits the barrel such that the parabolic bullet path leans right or left depending on twist direction of the barrel. Often a bore sighted rifle will be 2" left or right at 25yrds depending on barrel twist directionl. I call this Sven's Leaning Parabolic Effect. This would be highly exaggerated at long range if you hadnt benched your rifle to zero the scope. Or it may be just the spin of the earth that causes it. [/QUOTE]
