Poor accuracy at 300y, great at 400

[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2927343, member: 109862"] I’ve heard no shortage of reports of this happening, regardless of what is supposed to be possible. I certainly believe you. That being said, even if the bullets have their yawing and precession cycle tighten up beyond 300 yards…it’s not like they have memory of what direction they were originally pointed and go back to that exactly. I’d have an easier time just accepting this as “going to sleep” if it was a matter of groups not opening up as bad as you’d expect based on 100 yard groups once you’re at range. But tightening up? there’s gotta be more to this. Is there any chance this has something to do with scope parallax? Getting a “truer” picture at 400 than 200-300? Cuz that could do this. [/QUOTE]
