Dutch,
Lets analyze the fliers a little. Where is the flier going when you're shooting? Is there a consistency to where its going? And how far from the group is it? If the flier keeps going to the same spot every time then what ever is that's causing the flier is consistent too.

I ANSWERED THIS EARLIER. THHERE IS NO CONSISTENTCY IN FLIERS AS TT WOULD REQUIRE EXACT SAME AMOUNT AND LOCATION OF THE AIR BUBBLE OR LIGHT MATERIAL INCLUSION IN EACH BALL SHOT AFTER SHOT..
AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

It could be something simple like tensing your shoulder on the stock without realizing it, a little too much trigger finger on the trigger, if your shooting from a rest your non shooting hand being in a slightly different place. A lot of time the shot feels good, you called it good, but you made one slight change your not even aware of. Taking a little longer to break the shot than usual, holding your respiratory pause longer than usual. If your really locked in solid with a tight group even shooting on your heartbeat instead of between heartbeats can effect some shooters and shots. I mean, that's in addition to all the millions of other things you have to think about with a ML firearm. If you can have someone watch you shoot they may see something you're not aware of.
IF YOU ARE SHOOTING WEIGHED OUT BALLS AND STILL GETTING FLIERS YOU PROBABLY ARE THE CAUSE AND NOT TO BALL.S,
GETTING SOMEONE TO WWATCH YOU SHOOT WILL OFTEN TEACH YOU A LOT.
