    I've found things like this to be fairly inaccurate as far as diagnosing precision and accuracy issues, for me anyway.

    Most issues I find are with barrel heating throwing off accuracy, and or a flinch developing. Also improper finger placement on the trigger. A good practice is to dry fire (get snap caps if needbe) until you can reasonably activate the trigger without moving the barrel/sights as you squeeze. Also adding a snap cap or two in the magazine at random intervals helps show if you're flinching or not.

    Used to be a co-worker until about a month ago. Not sure if he is active on here or not.

    Why Polaris Razor seats in the bed? Some parts of the truck were cool others not quite my style. I know at one point the drivers mirror was busted. I think he chose those over a stock replacement.:notsure:

    I concur. All my "throwing lead left" issues are trigger control or hand size issues which cause trigger control issues. Small grips cause my maw of a paw to grip too hard because the grip doesn't fit my hand well. This also causes me to have too short of a trigger pull length so I end up sticking too much of my finger over the trigger and not pulling with the first pad of my index finger. Instead I get more of the first joint or in some cases, second pad. Bad trigger finger placement causes me push the firearm left when I squeeze.

    It is the eBay bumper. But I had to sell mine. Didn't fit right on mine. And it was a little too bulky for my taste. I have a brute force hybrid being made right now :cheers:
    Where about in Colorado are you? I'm moving to the Broomfield / Boulder area in a few months. Gonna need to be shown where all the trails are!

    Do you think it'll be more noticeable if i lift that side off the ground and try giving it a shake? I've been meaning to... It's just one of those being busy and no garage issues. I didn't notice any play when i took off the sway bar two weeks ago but maybe it's a little worse now.

    A small handful of select mods.
    The BJ may not be trashed yet but since you are running a lift you could be causing the BJ to max out angle and "thunk" as it hits the max angle each time. Its a shot in the dark really but since you have eliminated so many other possibilities that all I can think of.
