[QUOTE="dsculley, post: 1578805, member: 77514"] I think that part of it is that at short range you can see your group forming and you are trying to "shoot into the group" while at long range you probably can't see your group forming. Try this next time you are shooting short range: Adjust your scope so that the point of impact is 4 -6 " to one side (or above/below if you prefer) of your aiming point. When you steady your scope on your aiming point, you won't be able to see your prior shots. I bet your short range groups improve this way. [/QUOTE]
