[QUOTE="35whelen375, post: 854170, member: 70635"] Hello, I am kinda stumped, In my Remington 700 .308 WIN and shooting the 168 Barnes TSX. I bore sighted my Zeiss HD5 Conquest 3-15x42, then shot at 25 yards the scope seemed to track very well, I clean the Barrel and the next day moved to 100 yards and only needed to adjust 1 minute down and 1 minute left, 2 shots, I put another 2 shots, 1.8-2" high at 100 for my 200 zero- both those shots were touching, I then moved to the 200 yard target to confirm the zero, and flinched on the first at 200 from a dang guy with a big muzzle break next to me so I shrugged that one off, and did my next shot, but it hit 2" low at 200, I shot another and it was the same 2" low, shot a forth and same thing 2" low, I moved back to 100 yards and my point of impact from the 1.8" high was now right on the bull- WTH?? copper fouling? I have read both good and bad, but just wondering if that might be the case, or need to clean after say 4 to 5 shots? [/QUOTE]
