[QUOTE="Plinker147, post: 2345639, member: 88320"] Angle is the biggest influencing factor in your scenario. All the other inputs wont amount to that big of difference at that distance. Atmospheric pressure wont make a big difference unless you get into extreme conditions that you didn't account for or you get into longer distances like1K. At 590yds not much. Also the type of rest doesn't make a difference. It doesn't matter if its sand bags, bipods, rocks, back packs or tripods those alone will not change your POI. However how the shooter applies pressure or doesn't can change POI, meaning its all shooter induced. Its always best to practice in the positions you expect to shoot in while hunting. I've had a "good miss like yours" and it was all shooter induced [/QUOTE]
