[QUOTE="FearNoWind, post: 975722, member: 50867"] Consider the difference between accuracy and precision. Precision is what bench rest shooters strive for. Tiny groups, regardless of how close they may be to the center of the target. Accuracy is what the hunter needs. He has to hit the target at the aim point; the size of the group (as long as it's not absurdly large) is not critical. If I can maintain .5 MOA on the X ring at any distance I figure I'm in champion form. Some days are good - others? Well, you've already heard the story about fliers :D. [/QUOTE]
