[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1495587, member: 30902"] Don't drive yourself nuts. If you've checked everything on your scope and rifle then just go back to the most common error of all, human error. Toss the lead sled, do your sighting in with the same bipod you're going to shoot in the field using a good rear bag. If you're shooting on an incline make double sure you are driving the rifle correctly and not allowing the butt to slip either up or down. It is very natural to improperly drop the butt too low trying to get a sight picture uphill and to do the opposite when trying to sight downhill when you are on a relatively flat shooting position. Don't beat yourself up over it, just learn from it and practice shooting from less than ideal positions and build your own knowledge base from there. [/QUOTE]
