[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2081851, member: 25831"] Is this the only bullet it does this with? Have you tried it with others? It may just not like this bullet/load combo. I have a 6.5x284N that shoots the HSM 140 Berger stuff really well, maybe give it a try. If you get the exact same shift every time, you can adjust, but not preferred. You sure it a isn't cold shooter? Do you dry fire that rifle before shooting when this happens? Maybe shoot another rifle and see if you get similar results. Then dry fire the 6.5 and shoot a cold bore group. Frustrating...I know... If mine, I would clean to bare steel and shoot one and a follow up. Annotate, put rifle away until next range day. Repeat with a cold dirty bore and a follow up. Repeat a third day and compare. Go home and clean back to bare steel and repeat three days worth (6 shots through barrel since last cleaning only). It takes a while to map the cold bore but hey gets you out to the range. [/QUOTE]
