So, I wanting to see some others numbers regarding POI Shift when shooting suppressed.
Now as I understand it, this is the shift in the bullet from shooting unsuppressed to going suppressed. Correct me if I'm wrong.
So, when I was out this weekend I was really paying attention to where my bullet was hitting and not just adjusting my scope for the suppressor. Unsuppressed the gun is dead bullseye. What I was a little shocked to see was that I have a 6" shift zero low putting the suppressor on.
I have heard just a little about POI but never paid attention to what kind of shift people were having. I just wanted to get some idea of what others were experiencing.
SETUP:
Gun: Ruger M77 Varmint Target, 26" not threaded from factory
Scope: Vortex Crossfire II 6-18x44 AO
Ammo: ZQI 7.62x51 147g
Can: Dobbs Defense ARC30
Position: Shooting from lead sled
Distance: 100yds
per the internet... if you have 8" POI Shift, then you need to check out your gun.
Is 6" really pushing it and need to have it looked at?
