I've been playing around with an old Winchester 67A with a 6-21 mil-dot scope.
It likes CCI Mini Mags and shoots them well.
Today at the range I was right on at 100 yards and hitting 1 inch targets from a rest at will.
At 25 yards, I could do 1/2 inch targets easily.
At 50 yards, I am getting good groups, but they are about 2 inches left of the point of aim!
Perfect windage at 25 and 100; 2 inches left at 50.
The scope is adjustable for parallax and I carefully focused it at each range and test for parallax by moving my eye side to side and up and down in the field of view and the cross-hairs did not move on the target.
I would take several shots at each distance and move back and forth between the shooting points and got consistent results.
I am totally bumfuzzled.
One old timer suggested the shooting gods were angry and blowing on my bullets when I shot at 50.
I would prefer a more logical explanation.
Anybody got any ideas?
