The difference in 168g and 175g group sizes at 100 yards and the size of the 175g group at 300 yards has me stumped. I would have expected a much larger group at 300 yards with the 175g Match.
    Wasn't saying that you aren't a good shooter, simply that most folks will tend to "work harder" at longer ranges, and parallax tends to be easier to get correct.
    Also, when talking about groups at distance, most shooters don't have dozens of comparative groups, and are more willing to throw out high dispersion shots due to environmental conditions.

    Not me. The amount of long range shooting we do gets me to where it's 2 dimensional. A hundo or a thowie.... it's all the same. Like looking into the same tv screen.. where you forget what range you're even shooting towards.
