I've got a Leupold 24x, fixed power bench rest scope -- probably mid seventies vintage. It's attached to my Remington 22BR. I've been struggling to get this rig shooting as good as it ought to, and this afternoon while shooting a few groups, I did a little dry fire with the rifle bagged in. Sometimes, not always, I can see the crosshairs rattle, moving maybe an inch on the target at 100 yards.
My best group out of three measured .444", with two others putting four shots in that size with a flyer out of the main cluster. I'm wondering if I've got a scope issue causing my problem. Has anyone else noticed the stability of their crosshairs when dry firing your bagged rifle? jd
