Went out to the range and was very surprised that the POA was the same, but the groups did open up to around 3 inches.
Glad to here the POA was the same. Testing is the only way to tell for sure of POI and accuracy. I have an older Sport with the 5R 1:8 twist barrel. Testing 4 different 55gr loads that are at different velocities yielded same POI at 100 yards. In my newer Sport II with a 1:9 twist, the POI is quite different in three of the four that I have tested.
