Your just getting shaky in your old age Vinny. A straight edge is the only way I can get a decent cut. Plasma is totally unforgiving when it comes to advance speed and side movement. Too slow moving is better than unsteady fast. 5/16 might be pushing the envelope for the torch too, my Hypertherm is rated for something like 3/4 cut and 1 inch sever, but 1/2 is pushing it, even 3/8 isn't nearly as nice a cut as 1/4.
Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
