[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 273044, member: 12"] Unless the rifle is a relatively small varmint type caliber. Do not shoot free recoil. You are going to have to develop a consistent "hold". key would be how do the groups "open" up. Vertical/horizontal or just enlarge? What is "lights out" and what is open up with your gun. Be specific. It is difficult for many to shoot really tight groups with a standard 3-9x at 300 as exact POA is hard to establish and repeat. Parallax could be an issue, but at 300 I doubt it would be over an inch unless something is radically off on your scope. Groups that are tight at 100 will be normally similarily tight (MOA wise) if the hold and everything else remains the same. Very seldom do you really see groups tight at 100 then just wander open at 300 for no reason. Even low weight/SD/BC PPC bullets group well at 300. They lose their grouping ability normally past 500-600. BH [/QUOTE]
