[QUOTE="Northkill, post: 2768910, member: 110890"] It's always been that way with this combination. Have you played with a "hyper-magnum" like the 7 Allen? Kirby told me it's a thing. It did the same for him. He said he doesn't even waste time at 100 yds with his builds. He had a long scientific response about it when I questioned it, but I don't remember all the details. I've questioned him on stuff before and always ended up on the wrong side when I tested it, so I've come to respect his opinion & experience. 😜 It does defy logic or conventional thinking. From the little that I remember, there's a lot going on with that much blast when a bullet is pushed from the muzzle. No barrel is absolutely perfect - there's always margins of tolerance however small they be. Hyper magnums like this amplify those discrepancies. And it may be possible that long for caliber bullets also amplify this effect? He says it takes projos longer down-range till they fully stabilize - and possibly he was talking mainly about the mono effect too, I'm not sure... That's been my experience with this rifle, and it's very consistent that way. If it was shooting .3 at 100 one day and .6 another day, it would leave questions. But it just flat shoots .6 at 100 all the time. Extremely consistent rifle. I give him the credit. (my 10 yr old son blasted a small deer with it at 400+ yds in 1 shot he threaded through a tree-row this past year 🤠) By the way the damage this thing does is pretty horrific terminally on deer... I think I've posted on that before. [/QUOTE]
