Nice shooting.
One of the things I've noticed about sierra bullets is that they are designed, often by trial and error, to maintain their BC as they loose velocity. Some bullets perform well at certain velocities, but not so well as they slow down.
I'd also p[oint out that even if your scope is a little off, as long as it is consistant, you can make it work. E

That was my 1st thought too, John. The centerline of the bore and the centerline of your optic are at least 1.5" in that setup, and maybe more. Measure it. It matters. A lot.
