[QUOTE="LaHunter, post: 1440592, member: 54963"] could be the loads, could be the shooter, could be the light wind mentioned. It may be worth while to check at 200, 300, and 400 also. At 500 yards, a 5 mph 90 degree crosswind will push my 7mm mag 160 grain AB about 7.5-8", so it doesn't take much wind to move your POI at that distance. Then add in a little variability of the wind speed and direction, and you can see your horizontal spread open up. [/QUOTE]
