I honestly do not know if it is bad information, because I know that there are folks that have real problems with POI shift and primers, I just have not been able to show it in my shooting. I have ran the same type thing using the Omega and even my Rem 700.
A couple of weeks ago I even switched from 209 primers in one of the DISC Elites to a Knight Western Kit (bolt and breech plug) and shot #11 caps. While the POI shifted down and right a little bit, it was not a drammatic shift, heck it could have even been for another reason.
