[QUOTE="C.O. Shooter, post: 2017154, member: 35510"] Before leaving for Wyoming, I verified my zero at 100 yards. I flew out to Wyoming and understand stuff happens, that’s why you verify. I verified my zero at 100 in Wyoming, no issues. I went to the range today to verify my zero after my flight. Needless to say, my zero had shifted. I attribute this to baggage handlers and what goes on out of your sight. Groups of 2 in order by color: 1st Red 2nd Green 3rd Yellow 4th Blue (+1 MOA) [ATTACH type="full"]224165[/ATTACH] I noticed before I started that my bipod (Atlas) appeared loose. The rail wasn’t loose, the quick detach was loose. I didn’t think much of it, so I started to shoot. I shot the red group 1st, then I shot the green group. After the green group, I tighten the bipod and then shot the yellow group. Added one MOA and shot the Blue group. About 10 minutes in between groups. Ultimately, I wouldn’t be surprised that somebody jumped on my case, maybe even kicked it. I double checked all screw were tight with my rings, bases, and action. So what happened that made my initial groups low like that. I will eat the fact the bipod was loose and I should have tightened it before i shot. But that wouldn’t attribute to being low and what if any damage has occurred. I am going to reshoot in the morning and see what’s what. Sorry, this is just me rambling. [/QUOTE]
