When good results turn bad the first thing my benchrest shooting buds say is: conditions. They changed.
I've used a wind flag @ 25 yards just to see. Yep, Just a light breeze on my cheek will move the bullet. I must be consistent on the trigger to realize this but I've seen it.
I can't, won't say it's conditions every time stuff goes sour, but it's a player for sure.
I use a 50 yard zero because both RF benchrest & RF benchrest for score competition is shot at that distance & data or standards at that distance are readily available. A hundred yard zero allows variables to change exponentially,,,, was it me? the ammo? or WTF?
