Don't know your rifle, but I have to ask if it has a brass blade for the front sight.
On bright sunny days I can get two groups more or less like you describe due to glare on that sight.
All fixed when I blackened the sight.
I enjoy brass sights in low light, but as the sun comes up I always blacken them.

I had the same thing happen yesterday. I was shooting a .54 smoothie at 50 yards off the bench. Two shots touching, but high. Two shots an inch apart but low.
I'm going to blacken my front sight and try again.

Ah! It is an iron front sight filed to reflect light from above to the eye. So it is bright. I will try blackening it.
Front sight shaders are NMLRA legal. Still an "open" sight.

Yep, something like this can get knocked off. But a globe is more sturdy and still legal. Especially 100 miles north of the Arctic circle. :shocked2: :wink:
