So...yesterday I was shooting my Savage 10FP and some friends and I were getting nice little groups at 100 yards with Georgia Arms 168 gr BTHP. We ran out of that after a while and I didn't want to break out the Hornady for my friends (actually,they weren't willing to pay me for it ). So we switched to some Georgia Arms 150 gr FMJ,and I couldn't hit the paper.
"Where are my rounds even going?"
So I trekked out to the target,and they were hitting 7-8" higher than the other ammo! Is that normal? Everyone swears that they did not touch the scope,and I'm sure that's true.
But what's odd is that when I got this rifle,I shot the 150's to see how the rifle handled,then when I switched to the 168 gr rounds they only hit 2" lower than the "plinking" rounds. My scope has stayed dialed in for the match ammo ever since,then when I go back to the plinking ammo yesterday it hits 8" higher!? I'm befuddled. Should there be that much difference?
