[QUOTE="LRNut, post: 2611035, member: 3230"] Totally agree. One three shot group under 1/2 MOA can easily happen by chance. Hang that same target and shoot it again. My guess is the six shot group won't be close to 1/2 MOA, but if it is, I would not fret about velocity - an accurate load has more allowable wind drift error than one that is faster but less accurate. If that rifle can shoot 1/2 MOA at 800 yards, your group is 4" which means you are not going to hit a 10" target100% of the time unless you can estimate wind within 1 mph. A .94 MOA rifle at 2960 has an allowable error of just over 1/2 mph. Velocity doesn't help if accuracy suffers. [/QUOTE]
