[QUOTE="shortpants, post: 880923, member: 30564"] Sometimes it amazes me how slow I can be. I don't know why it just dawned on me this morning but I just realized my shot impacting 9" to the right might not have been an accident. Last week I shot the biggest deer I've killed in awhile at 403 yards. One shot and he never knew what hit him. I thought it was going to be a heart shot for sure but was very surprised to find I had hit him 5" to the right of my aim point. Before the hunt I verified my zero and did make an adjustment to my windage turret. I never could figure out how I could have missed that far right but now I suspect I have a zero issue. If I'm correct that means I might be able to improve on this rifles accuracy even more! I don't expect to get much more out of this setup but it has been beating my expectations all along. I guess I've got to explain to the wife that I have to go shooting again!!! [/QUOTE]
