[QUOTE="GaBoy, post: 1212124, member: 96782"] Long time lurker here finally joined. The quesion is I just started to build my long range rifle a 300 win mag my dad actually bought in the classifieds. We mounted the scope with much detail lapped the rings leveled scope etc. We went to sight in with another rifle as well and the results were interesting and a little confusing. Great group at 100 yards 1/2 inch group about an inch high. When we moved to 200 this is what confused me the group was about 3 inches high 2 inches higher than 100 yards. My thinking tells me that the arch of the bullet hasnt peaked yet at 200 or is close to peaking at 200 but im not really sure. Here are all the specs Rifle : Magnum reasearch 300 win mag with krieger barrel 1:10 twist rate Scope : vortex viper 6.5 x20 Bullet: hsm with 185 grain bergers Shooting conditions 95 degrees 85 % humidity 30 inhg pressure Thanks in advance for any help [/QUOTE]
