[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 1752810, member: 3728"] ofd, scopes get bent more easily that most people would ever want to imagine. If you transport your rifles in a soft case, chances are they will get bent. I learned this the hard way long time ago. Hard cases are often cumbersome but they do protect the rifle scope much better. I would urge you to do this simple test: with your rifle on the rest and you looking at the target, have your shooting partner come up and just touch the top of the objective lens on your scope, barely. Your cross hairs will move a very long way from the point of aim. Competitive shooters will tell you that wind moves bullets. Could be that you had more or less wind on the day you sighted in or your last day to the range. If you can change out to the H4350 or R#23 you may solve some temp sensitivity problems. I lived in S. Ca. for a while, traveled to Utah, shots were rarely over 350 yards, and I shot IMR 4350 in my 7 Mag, 338WM, and 300 WM. 140g TTSX and 120g ttsx are ungodly accurate in our various 7mm seated .050 off the lands, we never even monkey around with various seating depths because the accuracy is tiny clusters way less than a dime. The 120g ttsx is a very underrated bullet, you don't find them in deer shot from any angle as a rule unless they hit heavy bone. [/QUOTE]
