I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it yet, so I will. Shooting from a Lead Sled is not a good way to shoot tight groups. You have a pretty lightweight magnum rifle there, and it's going to move during the shot. One of the many problems with a sled is that there's practically no way to "feel" the rifle, and the pressures that you are exerting on it from a form standpoint. So you can't really create a consistent recoil impulse. Shoot it prone off a bipod, against your shoulder, with a rear bag for support. Dry fire 2-3 times before each shot to ensure your reticle doesn't move during the shot and your breathing and natural point of aim are good. Then assuming your form is decent, and you aren't jerking the trigger I bet your groups will tighten up considerably.
