It's possible that mag is throwing it off, however I would sight in at one power then test your theory. I have seen where guys groups change @ lower mag because they can't see the target area as well..just an FYI or thought. Not saying its you.

Are you allowing for any cooling time between shots or groups? Auto's can be fired off pretty quickly and it can lead to heat up issues.

If the groups are constistent or repatable it sounds like your optics are fine.

Another trick you try to test repeatability , is slide in a nitrex as #3 shot and see if it drifts as per the norm.
