[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 704487, member: 17844"] Check all the action screws are tight. Also if your Harris bipos is a leg notch model don't run it at the lowest un-notched setting as it will bounce about on the springs . Come up into a notch position . When you shoot of a bi-pod with some recoil you have to load the bipod just before you fire a shot by pushing it slightly forward also make sure the bi-pod feet have not dug a hole in the dirt if on that kind of surface. If so make sure you push forward enough that the feet don't hit the back of any hole or depression . Don't use the modern sniper prone position of straight behnd the gun it is too difficult for some and encourages the stock to go under the correct shoulder croutch position during recoil. Lay at an angle to the gun , comfort is more important . So you are telling me that from your first shot went 1" high the next two shots went into a 1/2 inch above that ! What is wrong with that , you have the three shots in a half inch group . Could you be forgetting that your Zero could already be the 1 inch high mark to start with. It seems to me that you have a good first shot cold bore gun so that is a big plus when most of our shooting rests on that first shot anyway and it can put three shots into a 1/2 inch . I may be reading something wrong but I don't think you have a big problem . If I have got it wrong let me know. [/QUOTE]
