[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 953123, member: 51650"] The #11 load has an ES of 85fps which is a lot. So that group maybe explained away. But #14 is ES= 34fps and while not great it is not terrible. Your technique could be the culprit but lately I've started checking my scope screws as I found the 1 1/2X Weaver on the 45/70 was loose (after only 47 years of abuse). Put a sandbag vertically between the butt plate and your shoulder and see if that helps. It absorbs some of the recoil but it also serves as dead weight at the butt end to quiet down movement.
