This is the whole story on my groups

When I arrived at the range Sunday afternoon I had had my rifle zeroed at 300 yards from the week before. Since the range is limited and you have to shut down the 100 yard range to go back to 300 and 500 yards I decided I would shoot at 100 hundred with the two guys who were already there. I adjusted my scope back down to what I thought would be 100 yards center. I was 4 MOA high first shot center line point of aim center of center target. Adjusted down 20 clicks instead of 16 duh,I am still new at this. Second shot 2 MOA low adjusted up 1MOA then half then half. Felt good with last shot and went to top left target. Thats five rounds about a half MOA low puled one. Was taking to the guys next to me really cool gent who was shooting some real high end Desert tactical rifles. He said try and dial it right in. So top right was getting it closer to bullseye. Bottom left was 4th group not sure why I went from right high to left low but I did. That wasn't bad then everything clicked and shot the last group low right that was the best so far. Guy next to me was spotting and he said just keep doing what your doing so I did. Went to next target the first pic in the thread and did that then I was done. The gentleman's name was Blake who was helping,and I cant thank him enough for the encouragement. Fun day
