"How long of an interval between shooting the 2400 and the Blue Dot? (24 Hours) What kind of sights or scope was being used? (Redfield/Lyman Iron sights) What was holding the gun? (utilized a Beecher Best Rest support)
Sights can come loose,(THEY DIDN'T) scopes can come loose (both internally and externally) , eyesight get worse over time,(20-15 vision then in 30s and now at 70) shooting from a rest vs standing (was not standing but can shoot much better than that if I was standing) maybe the barrel was fouled up and full of lead (never shot a lead bullet in that rifle, all JSP or JHP) when shooting the Blue Dot, maybe the sun was in your eyes,(sun was same place both days) maybe you didn't drink your morning coffee...."(didn't drink coffee at all for years due to it was not consumed by competition shooters)
