It’s due to the powder charge creating an exit time that occurs when the barrel is moving violently

Barrel harmonics

Thanks.
So do you go up or down in charge?


All of them do something better than the 30-06, but none of them do everything as well.

stringing can be caused by a bunch of factors, in my experience, wind and /or shooter form are the main causes.
Case in point, here is a 500 meter target with horizontal stringing that has nothing to do with the load or anything else but shooter form and /or wind calls.
It was shot prone with an iron sighted match rifle .
The Vbull is 1 MOA or about 5 inches, the 5 ring is 2 MOA or about 10 inches

scopes are cool, but slings 'n' irons RULE!

Wiggling.

I look @ ES/SD for vertical stringing and track that down 1st. Recoiling your front sling swivel into your rest doesn't help either.

I just might have a answer to this mystery
A friend wrote this elsewhere, and I have slightly modified it for the question at hand...When shooting at 300 yards with a centerfire weapon, integrating the differential of the function's parabolic natural log means that exponential growth in the ballistic coefficient still amounts to less change in the Coriolis factor impacting wind shift than imparted y the longitudinal tidal force on the perfect sphere on a frictionless plane before imparting the subdural hematoma via hydrostatic shock on the bullet changing horizontal impact at 300 yards.

Man, you have been listening to Kamala way too long.

I would check and thoroughly clean the crown area and check that the rifle is properly bedded. Also you could change scopes and see if you get a similar result.

I was thinking the exact same thing. Whoda thunkit?

‘Course maybe this has something to do with it 💨

All kidding aside (and some of the above posts were pretty entertaining), if you can rule out wind, mirage, rest set up, table manners and scope problems and your load still wants to string out horizontally, your load isn't warm enough. Be careful but go a bit hotter.
