Need some HELP have a son that just bought a new Savage LRH in 7mag mounted his scope bore sighted it & went ton the range !! took 3 boxes of shells Remington Federal & Hornady various grains .. 1st couple of shots at 100 yards Not even close to the 4x4 target came back in to 50 yards finally got a read !! bullet was over 8" high & right adjusted shot & reshot got the bullets back pretty close!! went back to 100 yards 1st 3 shots were spread about 11" switched ammo same story switched ammo again same story { gun was cleaned after about 12 shoots } ..went back out the other day with him .. we set up a target at 25 yards !! 1st shot was dead nuts but about 1/4" right 2nd was Exact height but left about a 1/2" 3rd was Exact same height but right between the 1st & 2nd shots !! went back out to 100 1st shot was about 4" high & 1" right 2nd shot was about 9" higher & to the left 3rd shot was back left !! I shot the gun my 2 shots were about 4 to 5" apart as well !! we were shooting off a Lead sled with 30 # of weight pretty solid !!
