[QUOTE="wbyfireman, post: 979385, member: 31754"] Went shooting yestersday zeroing my new Nightforce NXS 5.5-22X56 on my 7mm. Im shooting 168gr Berger VLD's, Win brass, Win mag primers, 65.5gr IMR7828, 3.415oal, 3080fps. Anyways, I was only shooting at 200yds, I would put 2-4 rounds between 1-11/2" apart then a round would be 6" off in random places. I stretched it to 600 yards off of sand bags-- rounds nearly on top of each other. Then BOOM a round would be 3-feet off in random places!! I almost through a temper-tantrum at the range like a little B$%#h! :) Any ideas? My hand-loads being inconsistent? Barrel heat? Me? My ex-wife cursing me? PETA causing natural forces to move my rounds? :) Thx [/QUOTE]
