    burris mounts are good mounts imo couple of mates use them on 22-250 and 308 with no complaints.

    It tends to be vertically rather than horizontal movement and i alway use the same ammo!
    But mabe i flinch before some shot!
    Either way i wont miss a fox inside 200 any way!
    Just trying to eliminate possibilities!
    Any views welcome:D

    & fire between heartbeats. I hear that if you wrap your thumb around the grip like a shotgun, your shots will pull slightly to the left, so you should leave it on the back of the bolt, with a bolt action OFC.

    could be air pressure, humidity, or a stock slightly warping?

    your not resting your rifle on a hard surface by any chance this can cause vertical stringing.
