Most likely just a difference in how each of you are mounting the rifle, cheek weld difference is the most common.
Different cheek welds and different eyes, different grips, different shouldering, also like JE said, parallax adjustment can be different for different folks.Browning X Bolt Hells Canyon Speed in 300 WM. After going through the load development and getting under 1/2 MOA at 100 yards, I took the gun to my buddy's farm to see how it shot at 300 yards and beyond. So I set up a prone shooting setup on sandbags and I shoot a sub 1.5 inch group at 300 yards. Then I let my buddy shoot it and he lays down a 1.5 inch group at 300 yards, except his group is centered 4 inches from mine. (BTW, Parallax knob on the scope was set at 300.) So can someone explain the reason for different shooters having that much of a POI difference? I am talking about more than just saying "different shooter....different results". I accept that this can happen, it's just that I don't understand it.
Thanks
