[QUOTE="CWM-RHG, post: 1907145, member: 106896"] I believe the POI is moving because the gun is moving, not that the actual scope is moving on the gun. Its an ATACR 7-35 with Nightforce rings on a 6 Dasher and weighs 17#, low recoil. I have another rifle (virtually identical) that the bolt does not jump and the crosshairs stay on the target as the shot breaks under dry fire. This problem gun still shoots 3/8" groups at 100yds one right after another. The group is always horizontal in a straight line. I can stop the POI shift by firming up my grip, but it opens up the groups a bit. [/QUOTE]
