    The swap to the 165 accubond only needs 10 mm of left for the same point of aim at 100m. Same velocity and BC.

    Wow that's great velocity I would suggest you are probably way over pressure according to published load data.
    I'm sure your rifle may shoot it fine and you may not have the traditional tell tale signs (heavy bolt, flat primers)these are not always present when over pressure.
    I've always said velocity is the best indicator of pressure.
