I've got a rather vague question for you bench rest guys.
Do you do anything different when you go from shooting 100 yards to 200 yards?
Reason I ask is while shooting 100, I can routinely get .5 MOA and some times better with reloads in my Rem 700 VS in .308. Scope is a Leupold Vari-X III 6.5-20x50. When I go to 200, it turns into .75 to 1 MOA and sometimes worse. I don't have any bench rest schooling and basically do everything I can to let the rifle shoot itself - supported on both ends, shoulder barely touching the butt, and firing hand lightly gripping the stock.
Any suggestion on what I'm missing?
