How about ejector marks?
Do you use an adjustable gas block?

Eureka! You hit the aiming point! Glad someone else pays attention to that. I always like to use the distance from the aiming point to the outside shot as my reference that includes everything - the ammo, the rifle and setup and me. Great job

DianeB: I have always been impressed with your groups, they are very good, even for 100 yards. Your avatar shows you shooting offhand, are the groups shown in you pictures offhand or from a rest of some sort? Just asking for a friend!
