Hey All,
Been busy the last few weeks and unfortunately I took three weeks off from shooting (the longest time off since December). Anyway I am getting better and better with Irons at 50 and 100 yards every time I go out, but I am noticing a consistent problem. It was a bit exaggerated this time since I had some time off, so I figured I would pose it to you guys to see what I can do to improve my groups.
Before I ask though I have two things to say. Yes I used the Advanced Search to look for threads on marksmanship, and no I didn't find anything. Also to answer Grant's thread about carbine courses, the reason I haven't taken a class is that in the year I have owned the carbine I have had no classes come around. I intend to one day. But until then, all I can do is push myself to get better, and ask for help when I need it.
So on with the question: Even when my groups are within 1 and 2 moa (only had two groups in my life that were sub, but I have only been shooting consistently as a hobby for a year and a half), all of the shots that are out of Sub MOA are low and too the right. I never go up and to the left or right, and never low left. Literally every shot out of SUB is low and to the right. This last time I went to the range my first group was 1 moa at 50 yards, second one was 2 moa with two to the low right. Stayed this way for a while, I did have one group that went past 2 moa with two shots outside of two inches.
All of the groups are 5 shot groups (max mag load at the indoor range). All of the groups are 50 yards, on a bench. But I have the same issue sometimes when prone, and when using various sitting ground seated postures my father taught me.
Any suggestions?
The second question would be ways to improve my shooting while standing, but that's another one animal.

If I didn't pull to the lower right it would sub MOA (with the guns permission of course) all day...
