This sounds so crazy I'm ashamed to post it but I think MAYBE someone will have a real explanation.
I have a .270 win that shoots a 150gr Hornady Spire 1.5" high at 100 yards, dead on at 200 yards and 6 inches low at 300 yards. During two separate trips to the range, under different circumstances everything is the same except the point of impact at 300 yards is 6" low and almost 9 inches to the right. The first trip I thought was caused by the wind, even though it was still dead-on at 200. The second trip there was negligible wind (defined by wind flags). I took more than one rifle and my 6mm PPC, .300 WSM and .270 WSM did not display this problem, so I figured that eliminated me as the problem.
any thoughts?
