[QUOTE="Topshot, post: 307422, member: 13285"] One more thing you could try. Repeat your experiment on a calm day. This time include a target at 600 yds. Shoot one shot at 100yds, one at 600yds and one at 1000yds. Wait till your barrel cools then fire one at 1000yds, one at 600yds and one back at 100yds. Repeat this process until you have fired say five shots at each target. Then plot the centre point of each group and measure it relative to the aiming mark. This process should remove some of the variables like variations in the strength of any slight breeze. If you are getting any drift at all then this experiment should pick it up. Drift is not liner , so take the horizontal difference between the 600yrd group and the 1000yrd group, add 50% and that will be roughly the amount of drift you are getting in total. [/QUOTE]
