    Parallax can only be checked while in the field or at the range and at the distance you are shooting

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    First thing. Is your reticle nice and sharp when you look through scope. You can check this at home like wildgene suggests.

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    Ocular focus is so the reticle isn't blurry when you look through the scope. Once set you should only have to change that if your vision changes. Parallax will be different at various ranges Parallax isn't a big factor when hunting, only when you strive for little groups. When in the field I...

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    When you do this only look through the scope a few seconds because your eye will try to adjust to it if out of focus. Mount you rifle and look for a second, it should be in focus right away. If not make an adjustment and repeat. I wear glasses and each time my Rx changes I have to readjust all...

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    You can check scope parallax error at a given range (200 yards in your case) by putting the scoped gun in a rest with the scope centered on target at 200 yards. Without touching the gun look through the scope and gradually move your head from side to side. If the crosshairs moves off the point...

    25-06 Test Loads--What Causes This???

    I had one rifle do that after a bedding job and free floating the barrel. I had to go back and bed the first 2" forward of the receiver under the chamber. The rifle in my case had a very skinny barrel but it solved my problem. Did it shoot that way before you bedded it? And your group under 2"...

    Ramshot hunter

    Thanks for the info. I'm heading back home to northern Nevada in a few months for good, Temps can be from 0 to 110. Think I'll stick with the Hodgdon extreme powders, they have served me well in the past in those conditions.

    Proper Shooting Technique

    Guy and Scotty are spot on. Proper technique and lots of practice from field positions. I only use a bench for load development. After that everything is field position. Bi-pod, backpack, jacket on sagebrush. Whatever you think you would do in the field practice it.

    funnel

    Just looking for an American made metal funnel, Not a $.08 Chinese plastic funnel marked up 2000% that has to be wiped down to get rid of static. You would think they would use an anti-static plastic for reloading.
