[QUOTE="Gone Ballistic, post: 1793435, member: 26477"] I have found it to cause a shift similar to what you did. Now, I only use it to average the speed of 5 rounds. Interestingly years ago when I purchased my first muzzle brake I noticed a similar problem when I would remove it and replace it with the thread cap my smith made. I assumed it was dynamics that were created by the muzzle brake. I was getting my gear ready to go on a hunting trip and was replacing the brake with the cap so it would fit into it's hard case and by chance happened to have a scale sitting in front of me. I weighed the cap and the brake to find a huge difference in weight. After having a new cap made within a few grains of the weight of the brake I started shooting much closer. It amazed me that the weight of a small amount can change point of impact so significantly. [/QUOTE]
