Wanted to run something by the group and get some feedback. My RPR usually shoots well under MOA at 100yds and had been doing so up until I put it away for the winter last year. I took it out today and something seems to have changed.
I started off with a slightly hotter load than I usually shoot (41.5gr H4350 w/ 140gr Hornady ELD - Lapua Small Rifle brass w/ a Fiocchi lead free primer) and it was solidly "Ok". Just over 1MOA and no real pressure signs, out side of maybe a very, very slight swipe. When I went back to my H4350 39.5gr load (the one that usually shoots well under 1MOA) it printed a shotgun pattern all over the target at 100yds.
I'm willing to accept that I might be the problem here and had an off day but wondering what else it could be or if anyone else has ever experienced something like this before.
