Gents,
I've been having a problem for as long as I can remember, but it's finally come to the point where I'm fresh out of ideas. Here's my issue: For years I've had this problem where my groups tend to favor the left side of my point of aim. For example, last weekend I was out at the range, and printed a nice .65" 5 shot group out of my savage .308. Fantastic group (For me), but it was about 1.75" to the left of my point of aim. So I adjust my scope 7 clicks to the right (1 click=.25") and repeat the string. Same result. Still 1.75" to the left. I tried again and again, with the same result. It seems like no matter what I do, I can't adjust this out with the scope. To make it more frustrating, it doesn't always happen....can be hit or miss.
What I know:
* Not isolated to any specific gun. Happens on my Savage, my .450, etc etc. It's something Im doing, not the rifle.
* I havent reached the end of my windage adjustability. Still have plenty more to go.
* Happens when shooting from the bench and prone.
* My groups are fine. Average .9-1.1" with the .450, .75-.85" with the Savage.
The only thing I can think of is maybe my cheek weld isn't consistent, but wouldn't that effect my groups, not just the point of impact???
Anyway, if you help me out I'd appreciate it. This has been plaguing me for years and Im sick of it!!
Thanks!
