I read more times than one, that (pistols) when sighting in with non-adjustable sights that if you hit low repeatedly you can actually load a heavier bullet and it will actually group higher and a lighter grain will actually group lower. It seems like it would do complete opposite but the other day I experienced something exactly the same. I've never understood this and anyone who has this figured out and can explain it in laymans term I'd love to hear...
