[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 1158415, member: 5302"] It's normal to have one group shoot to one side from a previous one. Us humans don't always position our bodies exactly the same behind the rifle for each series of shots. The more one's body mass is behind the rifle, the less each groups will shift horizontally. I've observed this happening in my own tests in different positions sitting at a bench with a rifle resting atop something as I hold it against my shoulder. I shoot about 1 MOA to the right shooting this way compared to zeros obtained in standing free hand or slung up sitting or prone. [/QUOTE]
