[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 1502041, member: 60453"] The gentleman that did the calculations for MOA adjustment is probably right. If you made the error he mentioned, you would be high at 200 yards about the amount you listed, and the same at 300 yards. Combined with wind drift, that might explain what you are experiencing. As to group size, try varying your charge weight by .5 grains up or down, and see if the group size changes. Also, you might try the Sierra Pro Hunter or Gameking bullet in 180 grain. It may stabilize a little better in your rifle. It will shoot flat enough for 500 yard shots, and still retain enough energy and velocity (both bullets) for good penetration and expansion at that distance. [/QUOTE]
