[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 888385, member: 1521"] No, the moments normally dampen very quickly, like before exiting the chronograph. There may be a minimal bit(very little) nearing 100yds that would likely continue due to it's cause by then. Dynamic issues/dynamic instability is another matter. This can grow & grow downrange. Neither will shrink grouping. There is so far zero ballistic evidence supporting shrinking grouping with distance. Where it's observed, and I've seen it and could reproduce it, it wasn't because of elliptical swerve. It was likely scope parallax settings different up close -vs- distant. I'm someone who shoots better moa at distance. I've never been able to shoot better in moa at 100-200yds, than 300-500yds, and it applies to all my guns. But, I'm always using the same scopes(Mk4, NXS), and I think this is my issue(that doesn't hurt anything). It's difficult to set focus up close(100yds), where you're expecting best performance. Here, you can move the side focus quite a bit each way & your brain will adjust(compensate) to seem focused still. In Contrast, it's very easy to set focus at distance(500yds), as you're either dead on it or it's obviously not. Too difficult for your brain to compensate this disparity. [/QUOTE]
