[QUOTE="Hondo64d, post: 987603, member: 1390"] Most seem to blame horizontal on external factors, but I disagree with that premise. Barrels do not oscillate in just he vertical plane. Harmonics also affect the horizontal plane. That being said, with you getting up to 3MOA horizontal, I'd be looking at something mechanical. All the usual suspects, bedding, magazine box binding, scope mounts or scope itself. Rule out all of those first before looking at anything else. With the magnitude of the horizontal spread, if I were shooting, I would have a hard time attributing that to my shooting abilities. Make sure you are calling your shots i.e. know where the crosshairs are when the trigger breaks. A 3 MOA wind drift would be some horrendous wind calls. I doubt that's the case either. Rule out the mechanical stuff first. John [/QUOTE]
