I see this is a likely probable serious issue. The effects of recoil on the gun in the sled vs your shooting it are dramatically different.2 – I shot at the bull prone from a bipod. The gun was sighted in and practiced long range on a bench with a Lead Sled (I've since read "no-nos" about that). During pre-hunt practice, I did verify point-of-impact with a bi-pod, but only a few shots at 100 yards, and from the bench, not prone.
Any number of other factors could come into play as well but my advice is get off of the sled completely and verify your drops again from the bench and from the prone.
More importantly just set yourself up a couple of targets at 100 and 400yds and see if you can even get a decent 3 shot group.
