Ok my rem700 30-06 has just received a choate ultimate sniper stock a tti straight jacket and Harris bipod so I went to sight it in with a nikon prostaff 3-9-40.. And at 25 dead on then 50 2 inches high so I figured dead on at 100 and stopped for about 30 mins and then the wind picked up to about 25mph and I thought I would show off a little and shoot a target at 196 yards (55) gallon drum in a field with a bullseye target taped to it. Well ballistics paper says the rem core lok180gr I was using was gonna be 4 low and I figured a little to the left cause of wind so I aimed at dead center and was gonna adjust from there well first shot 1 inch left which I knew was wind and 8 inches high which seemed weird so I shot 3 more all grouped under 1/2 inch but still 8 high so then my uncle tried and he did the exact same but 5 rounds all 8 high does this make sense anyone my uncle blamed wind but 8 high that seems not right for that distance plus the wind was blowing to the left and in gust not constant..could it be optics, barrel, stock please help me get it straight I got some hogs to kill this weekend..
