Not in my 9.3x62. It is a Ruger Number 1S. I sighted it in with Norma 232gn bullets about 1 1/2 inch high at 100 metres. 250gn Woodleigh PPs go about seven inches low and 286gn PPU factory loads are 20 inches low. I've never seen a rifle that groups different weight bullets so far apart.

A mate has a Tikka and his groups the 286gn PPU and 250gn Accubond about the same at 100m.

Don't know why my Ruger does what it does. ???
