new coating on BBI shift POI?

[Chaser_2332]

I have been shooting 165 BBI bullets for while now and love them, I recently had to buy another batch and this was my first time getting the new coating. With the same load I am shooting a higher POI with the new bullets, I have checked this back and forth with my old stock and always had the same result. Grouping is great as always just the POI change. It doesn't bother me ill just adjust but has anyone else found this common? The shift isn't huge but it is enough to shoot 2 noticeable groups with the different coatings. Or could this just be metal block from not wanting to change!

Assuming you're using the same powder charge for both, is there a difference in the velocity between the two?

Yes loader was still set from the original bullets, I'm going to give it a go again tomorrow. I'm still not ruling out a mind trick, kinda like "u always shoot better with a new gun thing".

I never noticed a POI shift between BBI and Rainier, I have intermingled them in mags while dot shooting and couldn't tell the difference. I haven't shot them rested at 25 though to confirm this.

No issues with the new coating here.
