[QUOTE="User4302021, post: 1636618, member: 105322"] If you are missing low as well as right or left, then it could be cant. If you are missing off the edge at 3 or 9 o'clock, then cant isn't your issue. Bryan Litz either pulled the 3 degrees number out of his a**, or he wasn't measuring experienced shooters to begin with. 3 degrees is huge. Optical illusions can trick anyone, but those aren't the norm. Removing variables isn't a bad thing. Why worry about parallax when a shooter can only call wind to the nearest 5 mph? Why worry about follow through? Why have a 2 lb trigger? Why strive for a consistent cheek weld? Why worry about narural point of aim? None of that stuff amounts to huge misses by themselves. Together they might more than double your dispersion. Spin drift is easy to get rid of, a simple twist of a dial. The other stuff is hard. No instructor I've had has ever advised me to ignore the easy stuff until I had mastered the difficult. [/QUOTE]
