    Recoil and POI

    Hopefully this doesn’t start WW3 but I’ve accumulated a question concerning the affects that recoil has on your POI. While doing some load development with my AR chambered in 5.56, I had a few shots out of my vise where I wasn’t properly shouldering my rifle (it was an awkward position). The...

    Rifle Scopes My SWFA 1x6 POI shift--what's acceptable?

    After researching here and some other sites, I bought an SWFA 1x6. Never spent that much on an optic before, so I had my fingers crossed. Initial testing was good news-bad news (maybe)? Fired a small group at 6x, 50 yards. Used the mil system to adjust POI. One adjustment put me dead center at...

    What are your cold bore POI shifts?

    OK guys, how much of a shift is there from your cold bore shot vs. firing on a warm bore? How much do you think your bore warms up by firing one shot? I have reasons for asking that I will post later. Thanks in advance, Hootie

    Suppressors Help me understand POI shift

    My new AAC Cyclone thread-on can is giving me a 4 MOA POI shift, seems excessive if it was purly a harmonics shift. Any better suggestions on "why"? I have a request in to AAC regarding this but am curious on the cause. Here is a test target showing unsupressed, AAC Cyclone POI & Gemtech HVT POI...

    Range Report Theoretical Look at POI vs. Barrel Temp

    There is an argument raging about the effect of barrel temperature on POI. That's taking place on a paid thread that I choose not to join. But maybe the following comments will add some light to the discussion: Guns do what guns do. Sometimes we can do a pretty good job of predicting that...

    POI change

    I was reviewing my log book and over the last three months and 500 rounds, my zero has moved 6.25 MOA right and 1.75 MOA up. Comparison was taken at the same shooting "range". Temp started at 49.5 degrees to last night of 80.5 degrees. Density altitude has moved from around 7100 to 7550 as it...

    Range Report POI Shift

    I have got a problem that I can't seem to fix. I have a rifle that the point of impact will change either up or down but sometimes it will hold the same POI for several range trips. The action has been in 2 different stocks that have been bedded correctly and the action screws are torqued the...

    Advanced Marksmanship POI high, temperature?

    Range Report Q3131A POI versus any other 5.56 military ammo

    is there a point of impact shift on Q3131A versus say m193 out to 400 yards? or would it be relatively the same as in center mass hits to that distance?
