[QUOTE="Frank in the Laurel Mts, post: 74101, member: 87"] Never intended to call you a BS er!! It's just that I get to hear tons of people tell me they can shoot 5 shot groups under an inch at 500 yards and all I tell them is.. Do You need directions to the match..it is very very very difficult to do on any day..5 shots, under an inch, center to center... Most people never get a chance to actually shoot off a bench rest out to 500 yards, especially here in the northeastern part of the USA...most actually never fire much above 100 yards with their deer rifles and most don't realize how difficult it actually is. Three shots groups are a totally different story, I was spotting for my buddy on Saturday and he had 3 shot's that almost touched at 500 yards with his .243 AI shooting 108 long range bullets..and for whatever reson the 4 shot hit about and inch and half from that little triangle and the 5 shot almost touched the 4th..we were both scratching our heads...As I said..I was not and never will doubt anything in the shooting world..sooner or later it usual gets done, but 5 shots under and inch at 500 is very very difficult to do, with anything...nothing personal..it's just that I'm sure you hear the same thing from lots of people about things that "THEY" can do...again nothing personal!
